A delightful twist on the classic tuna melt, featuring fresh vegetables and a crispy golden crust.
Combine the tuna, mayonnaise, onion, green pepper, green onion, basil, and oregano in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid a soggy sandwich.
Spread the tuna mixture evenly over four slices of bread.
Use a spoon or spatula to spread the mixture evenly.
Top each with a slice of cheddar cheese and another slice of bread.
Press gently to secure the sandwich.
Spread the outsides of the sandwiches with softened butter.
Butter ensures a golden, crispy crust.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sandwiches until golden brown on both sides.
Cook slowly to allow the cheese to melt thoroughly.
Serve the sandwiches warm with your favorite side dish.
Cut the sandwiches diagonally for an appealing presentation.
