Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Tuna salad
  • 2 Pieces Rye bread
  • 1 Tbsp Homemade mayonnaise
  • 6 Slices Mozzarella
  • 1 - 2 Tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

  1. Begin by lathering one piece of the rye bread with mayonnaise. Next top with the tuna salad. Finish by topping with the cheese.

    Heat half the oil in a skillet. Once warm, add the sandwich and cook for 2 - 3 minutes to get a good crisp. Before flipping, pour the oil over the top piece of rye bread. Flip the sandwich over and cook for another 2 - 3 minutes. Put a lid on the skillet to help get a good melt on the cheese.

    To serve, cut in half. Enjoy!
