About Tuna patty melt

The Tuna Patty Melt is a savory twist on an American diner classic, combining fresh tuna, breadcrumbs, herbs, and spices to form a flavorful patty that’s grilled to perfection. This protein-packed patty is layered with melted Swiss or cheddar cheese and sandwiched between two slices of toasted rye or sourdough bread. Often paired with caramelized onions for added richness, this dish offers a balance of indulgence and sustenance. Tuna is a great source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients, making it a heart-healthy centerpiece. However, the addition of cheese and buttery grilled bread contributes to higher calorie and fat content, so moderation is key for those watching their intake. The Tuna Patty Melt showcases American comfort food traditions while offering a slightly lighter alternative to beef-based melts.
