Italian Tuna Sandwiches
Serves 6 to 8
Time 45 min
These Mediterranean tuna sandwiches can be made as little silver dollar sandwiches or in a large loaf sliced into 2-inch thick pieces. You may add a thin sliver of sharp provolone or mozzarella to each sandwich if you desire. You may make the tuna salad the day prior to assembling the sandwiches to save time.
