A delightful twist on a classic tuna melt, combining creamy tuna with tangy pickles and melted cheese.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, and chopped pickles until well mixed.
Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid a soggy toast.
Place the bread slices on a baking tray and lightly toast one side in the oven.
Toasting one side prevents the bread from becoming too soft when adding toppings.
Spread the tuna mixture evenly on the untoasted side of the bread slices.
Spread the mixture to the edges for even flavor in every bite.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the tuna mixture.
Use a mix of cheeses for a richer flavor.
Place the tray back in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the cheese to prevent over-browning.
Serve the toasties warm and enjoy!
Pair with a fresh salad or soup for a complete meal.
