Tuna Melts – Recipe

Here is another meatless dish, which is quick, easy, and nutritious.  Perfect for a busy mom who strives to serve her family a healthy meal.  These are perfect alone, or accompanied by a nice serving of garden salad, or a bowl of soup.  This recipe serves 2-4.

Ingredients:

• 2 English Muffins, sliced in half (horizontally)
• 6 oz can of your favorite tuna (I use Bumble Bee)
• 1 Tbs. Hellmann’s Light Mayonnaise
• 2 Tbs. chopped celery
• 1 Tbs. chopped onion
• 4 tomato slices
• 4 cheese slices
• 4 onion slices (optional)
• Pepper to taste
• 2 Claussen Pickles, quartered

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, mix tuna, mayonnaise, celery, onions, and pepper.
2. Toast the English Muffins.
3. Divide the tuna salad into four equal portions (about 2 Tbs. each).
4. Spread each muffin half with one portion of the tuna salad.
5. Cover with sliced onion, sliced tomato, and top it off with a slice of American cheese.
6. Place the tuna melts in a microwave and melt the cheese, or place it in an oven proof dish and melt them in the oven.

Serve with a slice of pickle, salad, or soup.  You can also prepare the tuna salad your favorite way, and build your own tuna melts.
