I had some leftover hamburger buns sitting around that I needed to do something with. Then, I found this recipe Hot Tuna and Cheddar Sandwiches on Its About Food, Family and Life. Jodi’s recipe was the perfect solution. I had everything I need in the house to make these and utilize those hamburger buns. Plus, my kids do love tuna.
Only 6 ingredients are needed. Several of them you would expect in a tuna sandwich. There is tuna, mayo, and celery. The added ingredients include some dried minced onion and shredded cheddar cheese. Just those added ingredients makes it perfect.
If you want some extra tang you could always use Miracle Whip in place of the mayo. Now, I am a mayo girl and usually prefer mayo over Miracle Whip any day. However, when it comes to hot tuna sandwiches I do like Miracle Whip. So I am going to give it a try for sure!
