Ingredients:
2 cans (5 ounces each) albacore tuna packed in water, drained well and flaked
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup finely diced red pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill
Juice from half a lemon
1/4 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 loaf crusty French Bread, sliced in half
A few tomato slices
1 to 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or a few slices cheddar, American, Swiss or Provolone cheese
Directions:
Mix first 7 ingredients together with 1/4 cup mayo. Add more mayo if mixture seems to dry. Pull a little of the inside of both pieces of bread out. Spoon the tuna mixture into one half of the bread. Top with cheese and sliced tomatoes. Place the other piece of bread on top. Wrap the whole thing in foil and bake on a cookie sheet in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Cut into pieces and serve.

Hi Chuck,
Thanks! Glad you like my chowder! 1 to 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or a few slices of cheddar, American, Swiss or as you suggested Provolone would be great! Up to you! I love this sandwich! -Amy
This sounds great, Amy, but what kind of and how much cheese should be used? (I’d probably use sliced Provolone, enough to generously cover the sandwich.) And, by the way, I prepared your Sausage and Cheese Chowder after having seen you jake it on WGN-TV here in Chicago and loved every spoonful of it! Keep making those great recipes !
