Slice the top off the tomatoes and carefully scoop out the insides to keep the skin intact as a container. Reserve the insides. Slice the nopales in half and place them in a baking dish with the slimy side facing up. Chop the onion and what you scooped out of the tomato. Stuff the tomatoes with cheese and a bit of onion and place them in the middle of the baking dish surrounded by the nopales. Spread chopped tomato, onion, and tuna over the nopales. Sprinkle everything with garlic powder, pepper, salt to taste, and olive oil. Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes. Serve...
