Mediterranean Tuna and White Bean Salad
Tossed flaky tuna and creamy cannellini beans in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette with crisp cucumbers and vibrant cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz canned tuna
0.5 cup cannellini beans
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp red onion
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Drain the canned tuna and cannellini beans thoroughly to ensure the salad stays crisp and doesn't become watery.
In a small glass jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until emulsified.
Finely dice the cucumber and red onion, and halve the cherry tomatoes, then place them into a large mixing bowl.
Add the drained tuna and cannellini beans to the bowl with the vegetables, followed by the freshly chopped parsley.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently with a large spoon to combine, being careful not to over-mash the beans or tuna.
Serve immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the Mediterranean flavors to meld together beautifully.
