This is one of my favorite things to eat. Sometimes I spread the English muffin with a little softened cream cheese.....Yummy. I like to heat my in the microwave to heat up the tuna. Thanks for posting this

    Quick and easy!~ I didn't have any relish, celery, or english muffins so I subbed alot. I had some hamburger buns to use up so I used them, I chopped a pickle slice up in place of the relish and skipped the celery and tomato. I also added in some ranch dressing along w/ the mayo. These hit the spot!

    Lately when I have gone to diner type restaraunts I have been craving tuna melts. But as I try to eat low fat I haven't ordered them for fear of how they were prepared. So when I was looking through Sharon123's reviews for the "I recommend this recipe" game and saw this, I knew I had found my lunch! I used fat free mayo (and only 1 tbsp) and left out the celery as I don't like it but I did use the pickle relish. I used the whole can of tuna on 2 halves of toasted English Muffin and I topped 1 half with 2% American cheese and 1 half with 2% Pepper Jack. Both were excellent. Thanks so much for reminding me that sometimes the simple is the best! What a nice lunch on a rainy dreary day!
