Dill is the twist in this classic toasted tuna and cheese sandwich! The nice thing about this recipe is 1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes plus 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves can be substituted for the dill weed and dried lemon pepper.
Ingredients:
1 (9 ounce) can chunk tuna, drained
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup finely chopped celery
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, softened
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 teaspoon dried lemon peel
8 slices sandwich bread
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions:
1. Mix tuna, mayonnaise, relish, salt and celery in a medium bowl; set aside.
2. Combine butter, dill and lemon peel; beat until smooth.
3. Assemble 4 sandwiches by placing 1/4 of the tuna mixture on each of 4 slices of bread.
4. Top each with 2 tablespoons cheddar cheese.
5. Top with remaining bread slices.
6. Spread 1 tablespoon seasoned butter on outer side of each sandwich.
7. Heat large skillet or griddle.
8. Brown sandwiches on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
9. Serve hot.
