Can't make it to the diner this weekend for lunch? Our easy tuna melt is the perfect fix!!

Knife, Oven, Sheet Tray

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Rinse & finely dice the celery, then add it to a bowl.


Step 2
Drain the canned tuna if necessary & add it to the bowl with celery. Add the mayo with a pinch of salt & pepper. Mix it all together. See tips section to jazz up the tuna salad!


Step 3
Halve the english muffin (use a spoon for the classic technique)! Add each half to a parchment-lined sheet tray. Scoop equal amounts of the tuna salad onto each half. Layer a slice of cheddar cheese on top.


Step 4
Bake in the oven for 8-10 min, until the cheese is melted. Option to use the oven's broiler setting in the final 2 min for a crisp top! Remove the tuna melt from the oven & serve with your favorite potato chips. Add some pickles on the side & enjoy!

Finely chopped red onion adds the perfect savory bite in tuna salad! We also love adding a small spoonful of dijon mustard & a few shakes of paprika to maximize the flavor!
