Tuna Cheese Melt


Although it was nothing fancy, this was a very easy sandwich to prepare and it was extremely fast--ready to eat in 5 minutes.  The sour cream added a little zip to the tuna melt, making a creamy blend along with the melted cheese.  I don't normally enjoy sour cream, but it was good in this recipe.  I would definitely make this tuna melt again because of its speed and ease.
