What's for breakfast? Tuna Panini with cheese.
My husband has been complaining
that I sleep too much. So for the past couple of days, I started waking up
early… early enough to make hubby his breakfast: yummy Tuna Panini with cheese.
I made the tuna spread the night
before and stored it in the refrigerator in time for breakfast the next day. It’s
simple and very easy to do. Here’s the recipe.
Ingredients:
Kraft Miracle Whip (my husband’s
preference)
2 cans (180 g) Century Tuna Flakes
in Brine (drain the water)
2 medium sized onions (chopped)
Salt and pepper to taste
Kraft cheese singles
White bread
Directions:
Mix all the ingredients together
except the cheese and white bread. Others add more mayonnaise, some like it
with more pepper. I want mine with more tuna.
To arrange the sandwich, set the Panini
grill to medium to high heat (depending on the time you have to prepare this).
I used to own an Imarflex Panini grill.
It’s so easy to handle. All you have to do is plug it in and wait for the green
light then you are all set. Now, however, I am using a more sophisticated
gadget, the Cuisinart GR-4N 5-in-1
Griddler (special thanks to John and Cathy Villamiel for the best wedding
gift ever). As it is, this can be used as a Panini grill press or a Griddler
for grilling Angus beef burgers.
Get two thick slices of white
bread. Smother one side of the bread with tuna spread, add a slice of Kraft cheese
singles and top with the other piece of bread.
When the grill is ready, place your
assembled sandwich then "press" Panini until you achieve your perfect
browning.
For your husband or child’s baon,
wrap the sandwich in foil and slip it inside a zip lock bag such as Glad. Wrapping
the sandwich in foil keeps it warmer longer.
Happy eating!

Hi Raquel,
ReplyDeleteI also have a tuna spread recipe. But I add pickle relish and pineapple chunks (I drink the juice or use it to marinade some meat). One can of tuna in brine (180g) = one can of pineapple chunks. The tuna spread is very filling and the sandwich is a yummy treat for baon, breakfast, lunch or even dinner with (not so healthy) potato chips! I have yet to make a Panini sandwich though, maybe I should ask Jay to buy me a Panini grill. Hahaha!
