Wild canned albacore tuna salad with Dijon, red onion and pickles is layered with red pesto, tomato and avocado on sourdough, then pressed until golden — a copycat of the Joe & the Juice Tunacado.

Ingredients

    Tuna Salad:

    Sandwich:

    • 2 slices sourdough bread
    • 2 tbsp red pesto
    • 1 Roma tomato, sliced
    • ½ avocado, sliced
    • Cholula hot sauce

    Directions

    1. Drain tuna and add to a bowl. Mix in light mayo, Dijon mustard, diced red onion, pickles, salt and pepper until well combined.

    2. On one slice of sourdough, spread red pesto and top with the tuna salad and sliced tomato. Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread.

    3. Grill in a skillet or panini press until golden and crispy.

    4. Open the sandwich and add the sliced avocado and Cholula hot sauce before serving.

    5. Enjoy!
