Open-faced tuna salad sandwiches with tomato
The jar of ranch tuna salad is halfway to supper already, creamy and studded with celery and carrot. Pile it on toasted bread with fresh tomato for a quick meal that feels less bare-bones than crackers alone.

To buy
- 4 slices bread
- 1 medium tomato
From your shelf
- 1 jar ranch tuna salad
- 1 sleeve crackers
Staples
- 1 tablespoon butter
- pinch salt
- pinch pepper
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and warm 1 tablespoon butter until it foams. Lay 4 slices of bread in the pan and toast them until the bottoms are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes per side, then transfer to plates.
- Slice 1 medium tomato into rounds and season the slices lightly with salt and pepper. Layer the tomato on each piece of toasted bread, using about half a tomato per person.
- Top each piece of toast with a generous spoonful of the ranch tuna salad, spreading it gently to cover. Serve while the toast is still warm.
Note The ranch tuna salad keeps in the fridge for three days once opened. If the bread dries before supper, use crackers from the sleeve as a base instead and top as you would the toast. Serve with a side salad or pickles to round out the meal.
