Tuna Melt – Weight Watchers

Ingredients:

  • 2 cans (5 oz each) water-packed tuna, drained
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped celery
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 slices whole grain bread (adjust based on your point allocation)
  • 4 slices reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • Cooking spray

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven’s broiler.
  2. Prepare Tuna Salad:
    • In a bowl, mix together the drained tuna, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped red onion, and chopped celery. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches:
    • Place the slices of whole grain bread on a baking sheet. Divide the tuna salad evenly among the slices.
  4. Add Cheese:
    • Top each tuna salad-covered bread slice with a slice of reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
  5. Broil:
    • Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
  6. Serve:
    • Remove the Tuna Melts from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve hot.
  7. Optional: Greens on the Side:
    • Pair your Tuna Melt with a side salad or steamed veggies for a balanced meal.
