Ingredients

• 1 pint cherry tomatoes
• Salt
• 1 six oz. can tuna fish
• 1-2 tbsp. mayonnaise
• 3-4 oz. part-skim mozzarella

Directions

1. Step 1

   Adults can dust off the top of each cherry tomato. Help kids scoop out and discard the seeds.

2. Step 2

   Kids can help sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and turn them upside-down on paper towels to drain for a few minutes.

3. Step 3

   Drain the tuna and place it into a small bowl. Show kids how to measure out the mayonnaise and mix the tuna and mayonnaise with a fork.

4. Step 4

   Spoon a little bit of the tuna mix into half of the tomatoes.

5. Step 5

   Using a plastic knife, kids can cut the mozzarella into 1/2-inch cubes and stuff a piece of cheese into the rest of the tomatoes. Arrange the tomato spots on a plate and serve.
