Ingredients
- 12 slices rye bread
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery
- 1/4 cup finely diced sweet red pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 2 cans (each 6 oz/170 g) flaked white tuna, drained
- 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded old cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp thinly sliced, (green part only) green onion or chives
Preparation
With 2-inch (5 cm) round cutter, cut 24 circles from bread. Bake on foil-lined baking sheet in 350°F (180°C) oven until golden, 10 minutes. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight containers for up to 24 hours.)
In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, celery, red pepper and oregano, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes.
In bowl, mash tuna; mix in mayonnaise, salt, pepper and vegetable mixture. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Spread rounded 1 tbsp (15 mL) tuna mixture to edge of each toast; sprinkle with cheese. Broil on foil-lined baking sheet until cheese is bubbly, 1-1/2 minutes. Sprinkle with onion.
