  2. Spread approximately 1 teaspoon of the tuna mixture onto each Ritz cracker.
  3. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) on top of each cracker.
  4. Arrange 6 crackers on a microwave-safe plate.
  5. Microwave on high for 15-20 seconds, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. (Alternatively, bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes on a baking sheet).
  6. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Repeat steps 4-6 for any remaining crackers.
