- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with foil, place the two pieces of bread onto the baking sheet, set aside.
- Empty the can of tuna into a bowl (if using Wild Planet tuna I use the juices as they suggest. If using another brand that is stored in oil, discard the liquid.) Use your fork to break the tuna up slightly. Add the mayo, Dijon mustard, dill, salt, and pepper, chopped celery, and the white and lighter green parts of the green onion to the tuna. Stir to combine and taste to adjust the seasonings as needed. If the tuna seems a little dry add another tablespoon of the mayo and maybe another teaspoon of the mustard. Spread the tuna mixture evenly over the two pieces of the sandwich bread (see notes about saving for leftovers if you’re only making one tuna melt).
- Pop the bread with tuna into the preheated oven for 10 minute. Remove and top with a slice of cheese. Pop back into the oven for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the cheese has just melted.
- Slice the tuna melts in half using a sharp knife. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with the reserved green onion for garnish, if desired. Enjoy while hot.
