The official name for this recipe is “Chapman Tuna
Pizzas”. C.C. Chapman’s father found this recipe years ago. It’s what C.C. ate through his college
years. (I survived on hot tuna fish “grinders”
with melted Swiss cheese, and my husband
ate Indian food, but that’s another story!)
Tuna fish pizza is not necessarily the norm, but boy is it
good!

You can find my video on how to make English Muffin Pizzas
here.
You can find my blogpost on how to make Tuna Fish Salad here .
Now all you have to do is just combine the two and add a few more
ingredients.
To make four “Chapman Tuna Pizzas” you will need:
- 2 large English Muffins (or 3 regular size)

You will also need:
- 6-to-7 ounces of canned tuna
- 1/4 cup of diced celery
- 2-to-3 Tablespoons of mayonnaise

Next, you’ll need:
- ½ Teaspoon of oregano
- 1to-2 Tablespoons of Tomato Sauce or Pizza Sauce

Finally, you’ll be using some shredded Parmesan cheese.

Let’s start cooking!
Preheat your oven to 350
degrees.
You need to begin by making some tuna salad. Directions for
doing this are given here. Add less
mayonnaise then you normally would.
Don’t forget to add the oregano!
Line the muffins up on a baking sheet with sides.

Spread the tuna on the muffins. (I'm using the large English Muffins that measure about 3 inches across.)

Spread the tomato or pizza sauce on top of the tuna.

Sprinkle on some shredded parmesan cheese. (Use fresh, not the kind in the box!)

Bake for about 15 minutes or until the muffins are crispy!
Thanks C.C. (and a special thanks to your Dad!)

I don't know--tuna and pizza sauce together doesn't sound very good to me! I'm always willing to try something once though. :)
