Ingredients

6 total
  • ½ medium courgette, grated
  • 1 small carrot, grated
  • 60g cream cheese
  • 1 (160g) tin tuna chunks in spring water, drained
  • 4 slices bread
  • 60g mild cheddar, grated

Method

4 steps

  1. Step 1

    Squeeze out as much liquid as you can from the grated veg and put the dry veg in a bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Add the cream cheese, some black pepper and the tuna. Mix with a fork, mashing to form a thick pâté. Cover and chill until needed (it keeps chilled for 2 days).

  3. Step 3

    Lightly toast the bread on your toaster’s lowest setting (don’t add too much colour or it will burn on the next step). Spread a quarter of the tuna mix right to the edges of each piece of toast; sprinkle over some cheese.

  4. Step 4

    If using an air fryer, place the toasts in the basket and cook at 200°C for 7-8 mins, until the cheese is melted and golden. Alternatively, preheat the grill to high, put the toasts on a rack and grill for 3 mins or until the cheese is bubbling. Serve with fresh chopped veggies, such as cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks and cucumber sticks, on the side.
