Mornings do not get easier — or tastier — than this corn toast with tuna. Crisp golden corn bread gets piled high with a creamy tuna, egg and cucumber topping for a breakfast that is fresh, filling and ready in minutes. If you are a fan of toast-based breakfasts, our Avocado Tuna Toast is another morning winner.
Ingredients
- 2 slices corn bread (55 g)
- 80 g (3 oz) tuna in its own juice
- 1 egg
- 20 g (1.5 tbsp) cream cheese
- 1 cucumber
Instructions
- Toast the corn bread slices until crisp.
- Mix the tuna with the chopped boiled egg, cream cheese, and half the cucumber diced small.
- Spread the mixture over the toast and serve.
Tips
- Drain the tuna well so the topping stays creamy, not watery. The USDA notes that canned tuna is a lean, protein-rich pantry staple worth keeping on hand.
- Boil the egg a few minutes ahead — or use leftovers from your breakfast meal prep.
