    Open Faced Tuna Apple Sandwich

    Nov 27, 2018 / by Laney Schwartz / 3 Comments(updated Sep 21, 2020)

    Open Faced Tuna Apple SandwichPossibly one of my favorite lunch situations these days. It’s quick, easy and oddly satisfying. And with those sweet and delicious honey crisp apples in season, this Open Faced Tuna Apple Sandwich is about to be your new go-to light lunch or snack.

    I like my tuna salad really simple and with texture. I don’t go crazy with the mayo and I love a little crunch. I used to add diced apples in the tuna salad, and one day got lazy only to discover my new favorite creation.

    Open Faced Tuna Apple SandwichIf you haven’t tried the tuna/apple thing, I promise you’re missing out. The sweet crunch of the apple is the perfect contrast and match all at the same time. So if you’re looking to lighten up your lunches a bit, I hope you’ll try this recipe.

      What kind of tuna do you use. I have been finding tuna to be very fishy. I used to only use Bumble Bee white tuna in water but that has been fishy and not pink and soft.
