Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans of drained tuna
  • 8 –10 slices of sandwich bread crustless
  • 1½ tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 5 tbsp diced red onion
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise adjust to preference
  • Fresh lettuce leaves
  • Softened butter for spreading
  • 15 –20 fresh cherry tomatoes
  • Salt as preferred
  • ½ tsp black pepper or to taste
  • 1½ tsp lemon juice
  • 1½ tsp smooth Dijon mustard
  • 15-20 toothpicks

Method
 

  1. Combine tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, red onion, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy and well combined. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  2. Remove the crusts and spread a thin layer of softened butter over each slice to prevent sogginess.
  3. Spread tuna filling over half the slices, top with lettuce, and cover with the remaining bread slices.
  4. Slice the sandwiches into squares or triangles, as preferred.
  5. Top each sandwich with a cherry tomato and secure with a toothpick. This step is optional but adds a colorful, polished finish.
