Hot Tuna Sandwich

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was a nice little hot tuna recipe. My husband loves tuna melts, so I thought he would like it and he did except for my stale buns (don't use leftover frozen buns, buy some new nice hearty ones). I left out the pepper but added a few drops of hot sauce instead, otherwise made like the recipe called for. I can't eat cheese, but can handle a little cream cheese so I made mine in a separate bowl with no cheddar cheese and it still was very good. I think the cream cheese makes it such a nice smooth consistency.

    Hot Tuna Sandwich,This easy recipe is from a cookbook put out by Dorothy Mengering, mother of Late Night talk show host David Letterman. I like it for the addition of the jalapeno pepper; if you don’t like it as spicy you can use regular green pepper.,This was a nice little hot tuna recipe.
