2 (6 ounce) cans albacore tuna
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon minced basil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 ciabatta rolls, split
Dijon mustard, for spreading
mayonnaise, for spreading
6 ounces swiss cheese or 6 ounces cheddar cheese, sliced in eight 1/4-inch-thick slices

This tuna melt was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but overall it was a good sandwich. I would make it again, but with less cheese.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my tuna melt turned out terrible. The bread was burnt, the tuna was dry, and the cheese was not melted. I would not recommend this recipe.

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The bread was too thick and the tuna was a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
