INGREDIENTS:
1 (5-ounce) can light tuna, drained
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise
1 to 2 teaspoons sriracha, plus more to taste
4 round rice paper wrappers
Nonstick cooking spray
1/3 cup shredded reduced-fat cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar
1 to 2 tablespoons sliced pickled jalapeños
1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds

RECIPE:
1. Preheat a sandwich press and generously coat both cooking plates with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a small bowl, mix the drained tuna with the mayonnaise and sriracha.
3. Trim the rounded edges from the rice paper wrappers to create squares that fit inside the sandwich press.
4. Briefly dip 2 rice paper wrappers in water, one at a time, just until pliable. Stack them directly on the bottom plate of the sandwich press.
5. Spoon the tuna mixture into the center of the rice paper, leaving a border around the edges. Top with the shredded cheese and jalapeño slices.
6. Briefly dip the remaining 2 rice paper wrappers in water. Stack them over the filling, then gently press the edges of the top and bottom wrappers together to enclose it. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
7. Close the sandwich press and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the rice paper is deeply golden, crisp, and releases easily from the cooking plates.
8. Carefully transfer the tuna melt to a plate. Let cool for 1 to 2 minutes before slicing and serving.
