Kids and tuna go hand in hand, and they'll love the chicken of the sea even more tossed in tuna salad and topped with tomato and cheese on a toasted English muffin. They also adore making these little mini-pizzas!

Ingredients

  • 2 (6 ounce) cans tuna packed in water, drained
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/3 cup chopped celery
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped yellow bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 English muffins, split
  • 6 slices American cheese
  • 6 slices fresh tomato

Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
  2. Flake the tuna into a medium bowl. Mix in the mayonnaise, celery salt, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir in celery, onion, and yellow bell pepper.
  3. Butter English muffin halves, place them on a baking sheet, and bake 3 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned. Remove from oven. Spoon tuna mixture onto each muffin half, and top each with a slice of cheese. Return to the oven, and continue baking until the cheese has melted, about 8 minutes. Remove, and top each with a tomato slice to serve.
