1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained
1/4 cup chopped celery
3 tablespoons light mayonnaise

2 English muffins, split and toasted

melt tuna first..;-)
Make your tuna salad. Toast your bread or bun, put cheese on, and put in microwave for 30 seconds.
This is the way I make my melt: Mix tuna w/ favorites like mayo, relish, red onions. spread tuna on bread add cheese on top & grill.Yummy.
I use swedish rye bread, grilled with butter, mild ceddar cheese and tuna salad, yum-yum good!
Make sure it's rye bread!
1) Toast the bagel (or English muffin, or bread) first so the tuna salad doesn't make the bread soggy.
2) A generous portion of tuna salad on top of that.
3) A slice of cheese (usually American, but your choice) on top of that.
4) Put under a broiler for about 30 seconds to melt and brown up the cheese a bit.
(*You can also put it in a microwave to melt the cheese for about 15 seconds on high if you don't want to bother with the broiler.)
Serve and enjoy! I like to make mine on an onion bagel.
Yummy!

1/3 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup mayonnaise
4 hot dog buns; split
2 slices American cheese; halved
