1 can Tuna, Drained, 6-7 Ounce Can
1 Tablespoon Sun-dried Tomato Pesto (in My Recipe Box) Or Minced Oil-packed Sun-dried Tomatoes
2 teaspoons Red Wine Vinegar
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard (or To Taste)
⅓ cups Goat Cheese Crumbles
1 ounce, weight Fresh Baby Spinach Leaves (about A Handful)
4 slices Sandwich Bread
2 Tablespoons Butter

1
Combine the tuna, pesto, vinegar, olive oil, salt & pepper in a small bowl; mix well.
2
Spread a little Dijon mustard (to your liking) on one slice of bread (or both).
3
Top with a few spinach leaves, half of the goat cheese, and half of the tuna mixture.
4
Place another slice of bread on top and repeat with the other sandwich.
5
Melt a tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
6
Once melted, tilt the pan around to spread the butter.
7
Lay sandwiches in the skillet and put a lid on the pan.
8
Turn heat down to medium-low and cook for 3-4 minutes or until bread turns golden brown and the filling becomes warm.
9
Remove sandwiches from the pan, place remaining 1 Tablespoon of butter in the skillet and cook the other sides of the sandwiches, covered, for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and the filling is hot.
10
Remove from pan, slice in half (like your mom did I always slice it into rectangles because she did), and serve.
11
Notes: 1.
12
If you wanted it more melty, try using a different type of cheese.
13
I bet gouda, gruyere, or Swiss would be good, too.
