Recipe Hints and Tips:
Tuna Melts are not suitable for freezing. I'd doubt if there's anything left to freeze though!
Makes a great accompaniment for soup or is a terrific dinner on its own!
Other variations of Tuna Melts include adding corn kernels, slices of tomato, raw onion, capsicum, or lettuce. You could also add arugula and yellow peppers to spice things up a bit.
