Light and Delicious Tuna Melt

My mother loves her tuna melts, but the typical tuna melt is loaded with fattening mayonnaise, and tons of calories.

I decided to lighten up the fat and calories in Mom's favorite dish by using a light mayonnaise, and adding double the amount of veggies.

Now she has a terrific, healthier version of her favorite sandwich.
