Zesty Tuna and Black Bean Salad
Flaked tuna and fiber-rich black beans are tossed in a bright lime vinaigrette with crunchy bell peppers and toasted pepitas for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Canned tuna in water
0.5 cup Canned black beans
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lime juice
0.5 cup Red bell pepper
0.5 cup Cucumber
2 tbsp Red onion
1 tbsp Toasted pepitas
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
PREPARATION
Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and place it in a medium mixing bowl, flaking the pieces apart with a fork.
Rinse the black beans in a fine-mesh sieve under cold water until the water runs clear, then add them to the bowl with the tuna.
Dice the red bell pepper, cucumber, and red onion into uniform small pieces and add them to the salad base.
In a separate small glass jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lime juice, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until emulsified.
Pour the lime vinaigrette over the tuna and bean mixture, tossing gently with a large spoon to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Finely chop the fresh cilantro and fold it into the salad along with the toasted pepitas for added texture and flavor.
