Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, and Tuna Sandwich

4 (4- to 6-ounce) tuna fillets

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 loaf unsliced French bread

Vegetable cooking spray

Basil Mayonnaise

Bibb lettuce

2 large tomatoes, sliced

8 slices bacon, cooked

Brush tuna fillets with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Grill, without grill lid, over medium heat (300° to 350°) 10 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork, turning once.

Cut bread on the diagonal into 8 3/4-inch slices, reserving remaining bread for other uses. Coat slices with cooking spray. Grill or toast each side until golden.

Spread Basil Mayonnaise evenly on one side of each bread slice. Layer 4 bread slices with tuna, lettuce, tomato, and bacon; top with remaining bread slices.

Yield: 4 sandwiches

Memorial Day Grilled Hamburger Steak with Bacon 1 pound extra-lean ground hamburger

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 cloves garlic minced

2 tablespoons minced onion

1 tablespoon A-1 Steak Sauce

Form into two 2-inch thick patties. Wrap 2 bacon slices around each patty; secure with toothpicks and grill or broil approximately 7 minutes. Turn and grill or broil other side 5 minutes or until until a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of 155&degF. Remove from oven or grill and enjoy!

Makes 2 servings.
