Notes
- Why not try adding some avocado for a little bit of extra creaminess or some chopped jalapenos if you like things spicy. You could add a drizzle of Sriracha too.
- If you want to save some calories with this sandwich, swap the mayo for Greek yoghurt, or go half and half.
- You can add some extra flavour with a teaspoon of dijon mustard and some chopped fresh parsley or dill.
- If you don't like tuna, try making this with leftover shredded chicken.
- Swap the slices or bread for a bagel, or try putting it on a croissant.
- If you want a low carb version of this, put the filling in to half an avocado (that has had a little scooped out, then pile the filling up) or on a salad.
- Leftovers of the filling will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for 2 days.
