These tuna salad sliders have a BLT twist and take all of 20 minutes to make!

Ingredients

Canned tuna: I like white albacore tuna packed in water.
Crumbled bacon: Packaged crumbled bacon is my shortcut of choice (no skillet, no mess), but you can crisp up a few slices if you prefer freshly cooked.
Brioche slider rolls: Soft, buttery, and just the right size for mini sandwiches. If you can’t find them (check your grocery store’s bakery section), Hawaiian rolls work great, too.
Dill relish: It adds a pop of brightness and crunch and it gives the tuna salad that classic deli-style flavor.
Dijon mustard: For a kick, but you can use your favorite mustard.
Mayonnaise
Shredded romaine lettuce
Sliced Roma tomatoes

Notes
