Made these the other day and we ate them out in the garden by the pond… all plates came back clean as a whistle. Oh, and there was wine… There will always be wine. These are tuna sandwiches, but what makes them great are a few of the ingredients, the provolone cheese, bacon, and the toasted onion rolls. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
