Heather's Super Duper Hot Tuna Melts


This is by far our favorite way to eat tuna fish, and MUCH healthier than the traditional way. And SO filling! If you have already been converted to the yumminess of my brown rice salad, try this one too :) You'll love this one too.

6-1/2 oz can tuna
2 TBS mayo
1 C COOKED brown rice
1 C cottage cheese
1 TBS diced green chilis
1/2 C minced green onions or regular onions
cheese to melt on top
pita bread or regular bread

-mix all together. Spread on bread (open-faced sandwiches). Top with cheese. Melt cheese in oven.
-you can really play with this one, and use more rice, more tuna, etc… and it still tastes good. I don’t even use the amounts called for anymore. I just cook up some rice, and add the rest till it looks like I want it to.
