English Muffin Tuna Melts Recipes

CLASSIC TUNA MELTS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Butter the halved muffins, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and broil until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the tuna salad: In a large bowl, mix together the tuna, artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, olives, mustard, dill, hot sauce, celery, scallions and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top each muffin half with a large scoop of tuna salad, arrange 2 slices of cheese on each and broil until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Remove and top with tomato slices and chives to serve.

ENGLISH MUFFIN TUNA MELTS

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.
