Cut a thin slice from top of each roll (save the tops for later!); hollow out inside, leaving about 1/2-inch thick shell.
Spread 1 tbsp cream cheese on bottom of each roll and then spoon tuna mixture evenly into each bun.
Top each bun with a tomato slice and then sprinkle a tbsp of grated mozzarella (or whichever cheese you are using) on top of the tomato.
