For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the tuna mixture. Experiment with different types of bread, such as sourdough or multigrain, to find your perfect match. If you prefer a crispier melt, try pan-frying the sandwich in a lightly buttered skillet instead of baking it.
