Kittencals Egg Or Tuna And Olive Salad Sandwiches Recipes

KITTENCAL'S EGG OR TUNA AND OLIVE SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Slice the cooked eggs using an egg slicer or coarsely chop using a fork or flake the tuna in a bowl using a fork.
• Add in all remaining ingredients; lightly mix with a large spatula or spoon until combined (adjust the mayonnaise, salt and pepper amounts to suit taste).
• Cover and refrigerate for 2 or more hours to blend the flavors.
• Divide the mixture to make sandwiches.
• Note: 1/4- 1/2 tsp dry mustard powder may be added if desired.

TUNA EGG SALAD MELTS

Steps:

• Heat the broiler to high and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Add the tuna, chopped eggs, celery, dill pickles, pickled jalapeños and scallions to a mixing bowl. Mix to incorporate and to break up any large chunks of tuna. Set aside.
• Add the mayonnaise, mustard and smoked paprika to a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Add the mayonnaise mixture to the tuna mixture and use a rubber spatula to mix until evenly combined. Season to taste.
• Arrange the bread on the foil-lined baking sheet. Divide the tuna mixture evenly among the slices of bread. Top the tuna with a few slices of tomato. Sprinkle the tomato with salt and pepper. Top the tomatoes with the pepper jack cheese.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the broiler and broil until the cheese is bubbling and melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board, then slice in half and serve immediately.

TUNA-EGG SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Top each tuna mixture with one lettuce leaf, one tomato slice, and 1/4 cup alfalfa sprouts.
• Top sandwiches with remaining bread slices; slice diagonally and serve.

KITTENCAL'S DELI-STYLE EGG AND OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine first 4 ingredients until smooth and well combined.
• Add eggs, celery, green onion and olives; mix well and season with salt, pepper and Tabasco sauce if using.
• Cover, and chill for at least 2 hours (or more, the more time chilled the better!).
• If desired serve on pita bread, using 1/3 to 1/2 cup for each sandwich.

TUNA AND OLIVE SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• Whisk together mayonnaise and lemon juice in a large bowl.
• Add remaining salad ingredients and stir together gently.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Assemble sandwiches: Cut baguette into 4 equal lengths and halve each piece horizontally.
• Brush cut sides with oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Make sandwiches with baguette, lettuce, and tuna salad.

TUNA CRUNCH SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Open the can of tuna, leaving the lid in place after opening it. Invert the whole can over the sink and press the lid into the tuna firmly to squeeze out as much excess water or oil as you can. (Be careful not to cut your fingers on any sharp edges). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.
• Wash your hands well, then grab the boiled egg and squeeze it through your fingers into the bowl with the tuna. Add the celery, olive oil, onion, herbs (if using), mayonnaise, relish (if using) and lemon juice. Using a fork, gently fold together all the ingredients, trying to leave the tuna in relatively large chunks. Grab a few chips and, using your hands, crumble them into the bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and fold again to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste - more salt, pepper and lemon juice if it tastes bland, and more olive oil or mayonnaise if it tastes dry.
• When ready for lunch, spread each slice of bread generously with mayonnaise. Place lettuce on each bottom slice of bread, then top each with half of the tuna salad mixture. Add a generous handful of potato chips on top of each (more than seems reasonable), then close the sandwiches. Press down firmly so the chips break and embed themselves into the tuna salad and the bread. Cut into triangles and serve with extra chips on the side.
