Tuna melt cups



Recommended Posts

Since I haven't eaten bread since I was banded in 2008 I have had a major craving for a tuna melt. I came up with this 3 days and I have eaten 4 for lunch and dinner every day since then lol.

Tuna melt cups

Mini phyllo tart shells (Athena's)

Tuna

Light mayo

American cheese

Just make tuna salad fill cups and put 1/4 slice of American cheese on top and broil.. So yummy and satisfies my tuna melt craving. The shells are 25 calories each so total of 100 calories for shells but well worth it!

This does sound very good, may have to stop at the store on the way home for some shells! Thanks!

Love it! I never thought about using phyllo for bread but I'll bet this is wonderful with the crispy texture. Will try; thanks.

sounds delicious where do you find the shells in the grocery store? Frozen or refrigerated?

I found them in freezer section of my grocery store next to pie shells. I do use wanton wrappers to make mini pizza (spray with cooking spray, put on tastefully simple garlic bread seasoning, a piece of pepperoni and some mozz or parm and bake .. Totally satisfies my pizza craving.. I can hardly wait to have my mini tuna melts tomorrow lol

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
