Begin by draining the canned tuna and placing it into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Dice the red onion and celery stalk into small pieces and add them to the bowl with tuna.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the mixing bowl.
Add the plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, black pepper, and salt to the bowl.
Using a fork, mix all the ingredients together until well combined and the avocado is slightly mashed, creating a creamy texture.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and set aside.
Cut the whole grain bagel in half and lightly toast each half until golden brown.
Once the bagel is toasted, layer the arugula and tomato slices on the bottom half of each bagel.
Evenly divide the tuna mixture between the two bagel halves, on top of the arugula and tomatoes.
Place the bagel top over the tuna mixture to complete your sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy savory tuna bagel.
