Mediterranean Tuna Pasta Salad
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed with flaky tuna and crisp Mediterranean vegetables in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
5 oz Skipjack tuna in water
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup Cucumber
2 tbsp Red onion
5 whole Kalamata olives
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Boil the chickpea pasta in a pot of salted water until al dente, then drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and flake it into a large mixing bowl using a fork.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, dice the cucumber into small cubes, and finely mince the red onion.
Add the cooled pasta, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and whole kalamata olives to the bowl with the tuna.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the top before serving.
