Mediterranean Tuna and White Bean Salad
Tuna and creamy cannellini beans are tossed in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette with crisp cucumbers and juicy cherry tomatoes for a refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz canned albacore tuna in water
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
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Drain the tuna thoroughly and place it in a medium mixing bowl, flaking it gently with a fork to maintain some texture.
Rinse and drain the cannellini beans under cold water, then add them to the bowl with the flaked tuna.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until the dressing is well combined.
Add the diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, finely minced red onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the tuna and bean mixture.
Pour the lemon-herb vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently with a large spoon to coat all ingredients evenly without breaking the beans.
Serve the salad immediately at room temperature or refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the Mediterranean flavors to fully develop.
