Ingredients

  • 1 can (6 oz) tuna packed in water, drained
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped dill pickles
  • 2 tablespoons creamy Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (1 oz)
  • 4 slices whole-grain bread

Steps

  • 1
    Heat gas or charcoal grill for indirect grilling as directed in owner's manual. Cut two 12-inch square pieces of heavy-duty foil. In small bowl, mix tuna, onion, bell pepper and pickles. Stir in mustard and cheese.
  • 2
    Spoon tuna mixture on 2 bread slices; top with remaining bread slices. Place each sandwich on center of foil piece. Fold foil over sandwich so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again. Allow space on sides for circulation and expansion.
  • 3
    Place packets over unheated area on grill. Cover and grill 12 to 15 minutes or until sandwiches are heated through.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Add crunch to your lunch. Serve carrot and celery sticks plus veggie chips with these sandwiches.
  • tip 2
    Avoid grilling these foil-wrapped sandwiches over direct heat. The bread can burn quickly inside the foil.
