Ingredients

2 cans (5oz each) wild caught tuna, drained
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbls Dijon mustard
2 scallions, thinly chopped
1 finely diced celery rib
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
4 large tomatoes, tops cut off
Ground pepper to taste

Directions
Preheat the oven to 375, lightly grease a shallow 1-2 quart baking dish.

Break up the tuna into small chunks and place in a medium bowl. Add the mayo, mustard, celery, scallions, and 1/2 of the cheese and mix until well blended. Taste and add the ground pepper if needed.

Using a spoon, scrape out the flesh of each tomato and discard (I put the flesh in a small Tupperware to use later – don’t like to waste food). Fill each hollowed tomato with the tuna mix, mounding slightly, and place in the baking dish.

Bake for 8 minutes or until hot. Remove from the oven and turn the oven to broil. Top each tomato half with the remaining cheese, and broil for 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

And voila !! Your Wheat and Gluten Free Tuna and Tomato Melts are ready to serve.  Simple and delicious 🙂
