Tuna Melt Pizza

Yep.
It's exactly what you think it is. Unless you don't think it's awesome, then you're wrong. Heh. For those of you who remember when I posted about my tuna melt calzone the concept won't be especially new, but I figure it's different enough to post about.

This here is just tuna salad, spread on pizza dough, topped with cheese and some red onion. I left the onion out of the salad, since I was putting some on top. Next time I do it I'm going to make the salad a bit saucier to make it spread more easily and evenly. But probably not with mayo, too much mayo is too much. I was thinking either milk, just to thin it out or maybe sour cream would work. I bet sour cream would add a good flavor too.

I've been doing a lot of non-standard pizza lately so expect some more over the next little while. Hm, maybe I'll even make it a semi regular feature.

  5. This is about as untraditional as they get! I love tuna melts and I love pizza - so this is love! I bet some olive oil mixed in the tuna would be good too.

  6. This totally appeals to me! A tuna melt isn't good unless the bread its on is crunchy - your pizza idea is awesome!

  11. Hmmm, I'm gonna have to pass on this one. I can't do warm tuna at all. It looks really nice in the photos, but I know I could never get past the pictures of it :(

  12. A brilliant idea! I make homemade pizzas often, put everything under the sun on them, and am a big fan of tuna melts also. This recipe is a definitely keeper! Stumbled.

  16. Whenever I make something like that, my husband won't allow me to call it "pizza" so I have to refer to it as a "savory tart". LOL!

    Sounds awesome, Bob--great idea!!!

  18. This is a really interesting idea. Your pizza looks really delicious and usually what looks good also tastes good. I am new to your blog and spent some time this morning reading your earlier posts. I really like the food you prepare and will be back often to see what you've been cooking. I hope you have a wonderful day. Blessings...Mary
