Crunchy Tuna Melt
Chopped celery and green pepper give these robust, open-faced funa "burgers" plenty of flavor and crunch. Serve them with sliced pickles.
2 cans (6-1/2oz) water-packed tuna, drained and flaked
1 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp lemon juice
dash black pepper
6 slices bread, toasted
6 slices cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
Combine first 7 ingredients. Using ice cream scoop or large spoon, mound tuna mixture onto each toast slice.
Top each with 1 slice cheese.
Place sandwiches on baking sheet and broil 2 to 3 minutes, until cheese is bubbly. Makes 6 servings.
