Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to broil (500°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil (spritz with baking spray) and set aside
-
Slice the tops off the tomatoes and carefully cut around the inner edge to release the core. Use a spoon to remove the seeds and membrane of the tomatoes to create hollow tomatoes.
-
In a medium bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, celery, shallot, and celery salt.
-
Stuff tomatoes with the tuna mixture and top with a slice of cheese.
-
Place tomatoes on the baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes, until the cheese melts and begins to brown.
