1 dill pickle, sliced thinly
2 slices (22 g each) Swiss cheese
USED IN THIS RECIPE
PREP INSTRUCTIONS
- Separate ½ of the olive oil from the Clover Leaf tuna and set aside. Slice the bun in half and brush both inside halves of the bun liberally with the olive oil.
- Place the ham on one side of the hoagie bun followed by the tuna. Fan out the pickle slices and the Swiss cheese over top.
- Press the top half of bun together with the layered half and toast each side in a sauté pan for 1.5 minutes.
- Cut sandwich in half and serve.
Tip:
- Some or all of the remaining olive oil can be used to lightly brush the outside of the bun before toasting in the pan. Discard the rest.
- For a reduced sodium option (750 mg/serving), hold the serrano/prosciutto.
- Goes well with mustard and coleslaw on the side (optional).
- Serve with a tossed green salad or soup on the side (optional).
