Number Of Ingredients 1

1 (145g) tin of albacore tuna, drained and flaked (1 5-oz tin) 2 TBS good quality mayonnaise 2 TBS prepared basil pesto 45g grated Parmesan cheese (1/4 cup) 1 small clove garlic, peeled and minced salt and black pepper to taste 2 thick slices of a sturdy type of bread softened butter to spread ripe tomato slices 4 slices mozzarella cheese
