Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 can(s) tuna, packed in water, 5 oz. cans
3 large eggs, hard boiled, cut in chunks, add last
2 Tbsp cheez whiz
1 Tbsp mayonnaise
4 oz cream cheese
1 tsp onion powder or 3 - 4 tsp. chopped green onions
3 pinch red pepper
1/8 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 oz cheddar cheese, cubed

Steps:

  • 1. Drain and squeeze tuna fish until looks dry. Set aside.
  • 2. Remove shells from eggs, cut into chunk, set aside.
  • 3. Mix together, mix well, cheez whiz, mayonnaise, cream cheese, onion powder, red pepper,worchestershire sauce. Next add tuna fish and mix again.
  • 4. Add chunked egg pieces, and cubed cheddar cheese pieces to the tuna mixture, stir together. Refrigerate for 1 hour or you can use it right away. I think the refrigerating helps blend the flavors.
  • 5. Put tuna/egg spread on toasted bread or toasted buns. Broil on low, watch carefully so doesn't burn. (I use Udi's sandwich bread because I must have a gluten free diet.)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality tuna. Look for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil and is sustainably sourced.
  • Hard-boil your eggs to perfection. Cook them for 10-12 minutes in boiling water, then immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and avoid mayonnaise that contains a lot of sugar or additives.
  • Add some flavor to your sandwich. Try adding some chopped celery, onion, or pickles to your tuna salad. You can also add some herbs, such as dill or chives.
  • Serve your sandwich on a fresh, toasted bun. This will help to hold the sandwich together and add some extra flavor.

Conclusion:

The tuna egg sandwich is a classic lunch option that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious tuna egg sandwich that will satisfy your hunger and keep you going all day long.
