This is one of the recipes that I got from my cooking class during Winter semester. We've made it several times, and it proves to be a very simple and delicious recipe. Great for kids!
Tuna Melt Sandwiches
•1 (6 oz) can tuna, drained
•1/4 cup mayonnaise [we use miracle whip]
•1 hard cooked egg, diced*
•2 oz cheddar cheese, in 1/4" cubes [we've used significantly more than this on some occasions, just as good! also, we use shredded and it works fine]
•1/4 cup sweet pickle relish [we use dill]
•12 slices of bread [or as many as it takes you to use the filling up]
Combine filling ingredients. Mix well. Spread between two slices of bread, buttering outsides of bread. Cook in a sandwich maker or electric skillet, turning, until both sides are golden brown and cheese is melted [we just use a frying pan with a lid].
*You can prepare the boiled egg however you usually do, or use the way from my cooking class: place room temperature egg in a pan with cold water. Bring water to boil, remove from heat, cover tightly, and allow to remain in water for 20 minutes.

I remember making these as a kid. I learned how to make them in a 4-H cooking class. We put them on buns with the cheese slice on top and broiled them in the oven. I loved them. We also love toasted tuna sandwiches, but don't remember adding the egg. Thanks.
