Ingredients:

Serving

2 (6 oz) cans solid white tuna packed in water, drained
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1 1/2 tbsp onions, finely chopped
1 tbsp parsley, chopped
3/4 tsp red wine vinegar
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper, freshly ground
4 slices seedless rye bread
8 slices ripe tomatoes
8 slices swiss cheese
paprika, for garnish

Directions:

Preheat the oven broiler.
In a bowl, mix the tuna, mayonnaise, celery, onion, parsley, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
Place the rye bread slices on a baking sheet, and broil 1 minute in the preheated oven, until lightly toasted. Remove from heat, and spread with the tuna salad. Place 1 cheese slice over the tuna salad on each piece of bread, layer with a tomato slice, and top with remaining cheese slices.
Return layered bread to the preheated oven, and broil 3 to 5 minutes, until cheese is melted.
