Spicy Asian Tuna Melt

I don’t know about you, but I crave a little more oomph out of my tuna melts. This variety features a spicy Thai chili sauce and freshly chopped green onions to give it a little extra zing.

• Serves: 2
• Yields: 4 tuna melts

Ingredients

• 3  green onions (chopped fine)

Directions
