3 Servings
Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 x 6-ounce can Bumble Bee Chunk Light or Chunk White Tuna in water
1 tbl lemon juice
6 x strips bacon
1 med tomato
1 stalk celery, minced
1 med green onion, thinly sliced
5 tbl sour cream or plain yogurt
3 x oblong hero or submarine sandwich rolls
3 tbl shredded lettuce
Instructions:
Instructions: Preheat broiler Open can, discard lid. Hold a small wire mesh strainer or colander over an empty sink; dump can of tuna into strainer, hold over sink until all of the liquid has drained. (To be sure all of the liquid has drained, gently press on tuna in strainer with the back of a spoon.) Place tuna in a medium bowl, flake into small pieces with a fork. Sprinkle with lemon juice, toss gently. Arrange bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, cover with paper towels. Microwave on HIGH (100%) 4 to 5 minutes, turning plate every minute, until crisp.

Crumble 3 strips bacon into small pieces, set remaining 3 strips aside. Cut tomato into quarters, scrape with a small spoon to remove seeds and soft pulp. Chop into 1/4-inch pieces. Stir crumbled bacon, tomato, celery and green onion into tuna. Add sour cream, stir until evenly mixed. Cut one-quarter of the top off of each roll. Carefully pull out and discard bread, leaving a 1/4-inch shell, so each roll resembles a boat. Line bottom of each roll with 1 Tablespoon lettuce. Divide tuna mixture between rolls, spreading evenly. Arrange 1 bacon strip atop each roll, sprinkle with shredded cheddar. Place 4 to 5 inches beneath broiler for 60 to 90 seconds, until cheese bubbles.
