Happy Tuna Sandwiches

With too many things to do today, we opted for a quick tuna salad sandwich. But as soon as I reached the kitchen, I just couldn't let it be plain ole tuna salad. So, here's we had and it was quite tasty :)

Ingredients:
  • 2 single serving pouches Albacore tuna
  • 2 heaping tlbsp light mayo
  • 4 tblsp cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 large shallot, finely chopped
  • heavy dash of freshly ground black pepper
  • juice of 1/4 lemon
  • sprinkle of micro-grated fresh parmesan
  • 4 slices wheat bread
Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 F and toast bread lightly while you make the filling.
  2. Mix all ingredients except parmesan.
  3. Put half of the tuna mixture on two pieces of bread each and then sprinkle parmesan on top, and on the other two slices of bread.
  4. Place back in the oven for about 7 minutes. Note that the parmesan will not appear melted but it will be warm.
  5. Sandwich the cheese bread over the tuna half and enjoy!
Tastes great with fresh apple slices.
