Yield 4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces tuna in water

  • Beat together milk, egg, and egg whites.
  • Heat 2 large non-stick pans over medium-low heat.
  • Carefully dip both sides of each sandwich in the milk and egg mixture, not soaking too much but using up all the mixture.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality tuna and hummus. Look for tuna that is packed in water or oil, and hummus that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients.
  • If you don't have any hummus on hand, you can easily make your own. Simply combine chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and salt in a food processor or blender until smooth.
  • Feel free to get creative with your sandwich fillings. In addition to tuna and hummus, you can also add other ingredients like avocado, cucumber, tomato, red onion, or sprouts.
  • If you're packing your sandwich for lunch, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This will help to keep the sandwich fresh and prevent the bread from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

Tuna and hummus sandwiches are a quick, easy, and delicious lunch option. They're also a great way to use up leftover tuna or hummus. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying sandwich that you'll love.
