Put the bowl in the heated water and whisk all the ingredients together until they are fully melted and combined.
  • Spread the cream cheese over the top of each half of the bread bun.
  • To serve the dish, put the toasted bread on a plate and top with a salad mix. Drain the tuna and chop onions and capers. Squeeze the lemon juice onto the vegetables and add the sliced pickles. Mix this with the tuna. Add the tuna mixture to the toasts.
  • Take out the eggs from the boiling water, remove them from the sandwich bags, and place the poached eggs on top of the tuna mix. Pour the prepared sauce over the eggs. Decorate the dish with microgreens, capers, and cherry tomatoes.
