While the soup simmers, Jo assembles tasty Mozzarella Tuna Melts. "Our daughter's home economics teacher shared the recipe for these all-American favorites," she notes. Using a mini food processor to chop the celery and onion for the filling helps shave preparation time. Then Jo just pops the sandwiches in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 can (6 ounces) water-packed tuna, drained and flaked
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

  • 4 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 4 tomato slices
