TUNA PUFF SANDWICHES
My husband and I can't get enough of this great supper sandwich. The cheese-covered tomato slices top off the mild tuna salad deliciously. Sometimes, I replace the tuna with canned salmon, ham, chicken or turkey. How could something so good be so easy?

- If you don't have any Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard.
- Be sure to drain the tuna well before adding it to the mixture, otherwise the puffs will be too wet.
- Don't overmix the tuna mixture or the puffs will be tough.
- If the mixture is too wet, add more breadcrumbs until it holds together.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop the mixture into the hot oil to ensure uniform size and shape.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the puffs, or they will not cook evenly.
