Mary Pat's Tuna Melt

Mary Pat's Tuna Melt
  • 1 (5 ounce) can olive-oil packed tuna, undrained
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 dill pickle, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced red onion
  • 4 slices rustic whole-grain bread
  • 4 slices Irish Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons whipped cream cheese, divided
  • 1 cup coarsely crushed potato chips (such as Utz®)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, divided


  1. Mix tuna, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard together in a small bowl. Stir in pickle and red onion. Spread tuna mixture on 2 slices of bread. Top each with 2 slices of Cheddar cheese.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon cream cheese on each of the remaining 2 slices of bread. Place on top of the Cheddar cheese.
  3. Place crushed chips in a shallow bowl. Spread top side of each tuna melt with 1 1/2 teaspoon mayonnaise and press into the chips. Repeat on other side.
  4. Heat a dry grill pan over medium-high heat. Toast tuna melts until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
