Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 english muffins (sliced in half (see notes))
12 oz. canned tuna (preferably solid white albacore packed in water, drained)
1 rib celery (finely diced)
2 green onions (thinly sliced, some dark green parts reserved)
1 tablespoon sweet relish
1/2 cup mayonnaise
salt and pepper (to taste)
8 slices provolone cheese (or other melty cheese)

Steps:

  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, for easy clean-up (optional). Place the halved English muffins cut-side-up on top. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Put the English muffins in the oven while it preheats, to toast them up a bit.
  • Meanwhile, mix the tuna salad. In a medium bowl, mix canned tuna (flake apart with a fork first), diced celery, green onion, sweet relish (1 tablespoon), mayonnaise (½ cup), and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Take the English muffins out of the oven. Spoon the tuna salad on top of each English muffin half evenly, pressing down on the top with the back of your spoon to pack it on a bit. Place a slice of cheese on top of each. Put back in the oven at 425 degrees F for about 10 minutes, until cheese is melted on top and starting to brown in places.
  • Garnish with the remaining dark green sliced onions and serve.
