Tuna Melt with Egg

Name: Tuna Melt with Egg
Cook time: 5 min
Yield: 6 tuna melts
Cuisine: United Kingdom
Ingredients: 2 (5 ounce) cans water-packed tuna, drained; 1 cup mayonnaise; ¼ cup finely chopped celery; ¼ cup finely chopped green onions; ¼ cup finely chopped carrots; 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped; 8 large ripe olives, sliced; 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (such as Grey Poupon®); ¼ cup butter, melted; 12 slices sourdough bread, or more to taste; 12 slices Swiss cheese

I got this recipe when I was working at a restaurant, when I was a teenager, that is no longer in business. I like the tuna salad in it because it is a little different then most. And this sandwich is just a little different then most. I serve this with small relish tray of olives, pickles or cucumbers, green onions, pickled beets, pickled okra, and sliced tomatoes. Plus a salad of some sort, like a corn salad or pasta salad.
