Charlies Tuna Melt Quesadilla Recipes

TUNA MELT

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and set the rack about 4 to 5 inches from the heat source.
• Spread the bread out on a baking sheet and toast. Spread the toasted muffins or bread with the mayonnaise, if using. Top with the Tuna Salad and then the shredded cheese. Place the baking sheet under the broiler and heat for 3 to 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
• In a small mixing bowl break up the tuna with a fork. Toss with the celery, onion, and parsley. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, and season with pepper to taste. Stir to combine. Add lemon juice, if using.

BLAIR'S GRILLED TUNA QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Heat a small nonstick skillet with the olive oil and cook the corn, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of water if the pan gets dry. Add the spices and hot red pepper sauce. Set aside.
• In a medium nonstick skillet, place 1 tortilla on the bottom. Evenly distribute the corn mixture, tuna, scallions, and cheese on the tortilla. Place the second tortilla on top and cook until golden on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the quesadilla over and cook until golden on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more, or until the cheese melts. Cut into 6 wedges.
