Tuna Melts are one of my all time favorite lunches to make because they come together quickly, are packed with protein (50g of protein per serving), and are absolutely delicious! The tuna salad is made with just a handful of ingredients like Greek yogurt, mayo, mustard, onions, pickles and pickle juice, then spread on top of your toasted bread of choice, topped with shredded cheese and baked to perfection! If canned tuna isn’t your thing, you could easily swap this for canned chicken.
– 1 bagel or 2 pieces of bread of choice (Dave’s Killer Bread Bagels are my favorite for this recipe – adds an extra 13g of protein)
– 1 can tuna (Wild Planet Foods is my brand of choice)
– 2 tbsp greek yogurt
– 1 tbsp mayo
– 1 tsp dijon mustard
– 2 tbsp pickles, finely diced
– 1 tbsp red onions, finely diced
– 1 tbsp pickle juice
– Salt & pepper
– 1/3 cup shredded cheese
