Quiznos Tuna Melt

You may notice a reoccurring theme of Quiznos copycat subs on our blog because I worked there for many years, and we no longer have a Quiznos in our area. I still remember nearly all the recipes for the subs and have loved the challenge of trying to recreate them at home. The Quiznos Tuna Melt Sub was always a favorite, with its combination of toasted bread and creamy tuna mixture…and isn’t there just something about tuna and pickles?! I tried my best to recreate the recipe at home and I think it is pretty darn close. These are a favorite at our house, and the best part (other than the fact that they are delicious) is that they are fast, affordable, and can feed a crowd. We usually serve them with chips and there is just something so satisfying about the combination. From the Monster Foodies to you—love what you eat and enjoy!
