Hot tuna sandwiches

Preparation

1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) or prepare a pan for stovetop cooking.
2
Drain the canned tuna well. In a medium bowl, flake the tuna with a fork.
3
Finely dice the celery and red onion. Add them to the tuna.
4
Stir in the Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard. Mix everything until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
Spread a thin layer of olive oil on one side of each bread slice.
6
Place two slices of bread, oiled-side down, on a baking sheet or in a pan. Distribute the tuna mixture evenly over these two slices.
7
Top each tuna-covered bread slice with half of the shredded mozzarella cheese.
8
Place the remaining two bread slices (oiled-side up) on top of the cheese to form sandwiches.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or cook on the stovetop over medium heat for 3-5 minutes per side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
