Tuna Melt with Straus Family Creamery Organic Greek Yogurt

I could probably eat a tuna melt for lunch every day. It’s so satisfying (chock full of protein!) and keeps me full and energized for the rest of the day. I like to add Straus Family Creamery Organic Greek Yogurt to my tuna salad because it’s thick, creamy, and so delicious. I like to keep a tub of Straus Organic Greek Yogurt in my fridge at all times because it’s so versatile—perfect for anything like this tuna melt to baked goods to salad dressings to yogurt bowls.

Spread both slices of sourdough with a spoonful of yogurt. On one half, add 1 slice cheese (to the yogurt side of bread), tuna mixture, tomato slices, and another slice of cheese. Top with remaining slice of bread, yogurt side on the inside of the sandwich.

Heat a thin layer of oil in a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sandwich and cook until bread is golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board. Slice in half and serve immediately.
