Add diced red onion and diced celery to the bowl.

Incorporate minced garlic into the mixture.

Add diced dill pickles and pickled jalapeno to the bowl.

Mix in some mustard and combine all the ingredients thoroughly.

Add lemon juice and season with salt and black pepper to taste, then mix again.

Taste the mixture before adding the jackfruit to ensure seasoning is correct.

Add the jackfruit to the dressing and mix until well combined.

Prepare a baking sheet with toasted bread slices.

Top each slice of bread with a thin slice of cheddar cheese, baby spinach, and diced tomatoes.

Add slices of avocado on top of the veggies on each bread slice.

Spoon the jackfruit tuna salad mixture on top of each slice, ensuring the veggies are weighted down.

Top the jackfruit salad with more cheese for extra flavor.

Place the baking sheet in the oven on low broil until the cheese melts.
