     You can increase fiber and lower calorie count by using a Thomas light whole grain English muffin. I make this with a laughing cow light cheese wedge--only 35 calories. You can also add olives, a little onion to the tuna. I use a tuna pouch, no draining & 80 calories - 1/24/10

     Very tasty. I added a stalk of celery for a little added crunch. I also toasted the bread before adding the tuna salad and then put it under the broiler to melt the cheese YUMMY - 7/2/10

     this doesnt sound right--a whole can of tuna is 170 calories by it self!! - 9/10/07

     Loved the recipes but I used salsa inplace of the relish. Gave it a nice little zing. - 11/16/10

     I make something very similar, but a lot less fattening... I add 1 tsp. mustard to the tuna mix for some extra zing and I use wasa fibre crispbread instead of the english muffin. - 7/18/10

     I had never tried a tuna melt because I wasn't sure how warm tuna salad would taste. This was delicious, though! In fact, I ate BOTH servings! - 2/12/10

     Great!It's so easy to make and taste fantastic! I did not end up using all the tuna and This meal ended up being about 409 calories according to my Nutrition Tacker. Which is fine! I will defiantly be making this again! - 8/12/09

     This was great! I don't like to try things that are too new, but this was a welcome change to our traditional tuna sandwich. - 6/16/13

     This is a quick and healthy option for lunch or dinner on the run. I substituted salsa for the relish and added a tsp of mustard (as suggested by others) and it tasted great. I had enough tuna left over for at least 2 more servings. Will probably add more mustard and spices for more kick next time. - 5/17/13

     Confession: did not use pickle relish. Used suggestion of added celery, instead. Very easy & nutritious recipe, and will definitely make again. Maybe even drum up the courage to try pickle relish. - 12/29/11

     This was a very tasty and filling sandwich. I used the larger 6 oz. can of tuna. That way I had enough to make a sandwich the next day as well. I used dill relish which gave it a nice flavor. - 12/14/11

     I would rate this a 10, made it tonight for my hubby and myself and we both loved it. It was too hot to put in oven to melt cheese so I put in non stick frying pan with cover & kept checking worked perfect; will have again - 9/25/11
