- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 stalks, finely chopped green onion
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 halved mini bagels
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons, softened butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and transfer it to a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add mayonnaise, dijon mustard, and finely chopped green onion to the tuna. Mix everything together until well combined.
Season the tuna mixture with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the cut sides of each mini bagel half.
Place the buttered bagel halves, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
Spoon a generous amount of the tuna mixture onto each bagel half, spreading it evenly to cover the surface.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tuna mixture on each bagel half.
Bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the bagels are lightly toasted.
Remove the tuna melts from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Teeny Tiny Tuna Melts as a fun, cheesy snack or appetizer!
