Tuna and Chickpea Salad with Lettuce, Tomatoes, and Cucumbers
Flaky tuna and protein-rich chickpeas tossed with crisp cucumbers and tomatoes in a zesty lemon-herb dressing, served over a bed of crunchy romaine.
INGREDIENTS
9 ounces Canned Tuna in Water (drained)
0.5 cup Canned Chickpeas (rinsed)
2 cups Romaine Lettuce (chopped)
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
1 cup Cucumber (sliced)
2 tablespoons Red Onion (minced)
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Pinch of dried oregano
PREPARATION
Drain the canned tuna and chickpeas thoroughly in a fine-mesh sieve to remove excess liquid.
Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and slice the cucumber and cherry tomatoes into uniform shapes.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of dried oregano to create a bright vinaigrette.
Combine the drained tuna, chickpeas, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and minced red onion in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the lemon-herb dressing over the tuna and vegetable mixture, tossing gently to ensure everything is evenly coated and the tuna is slightly flaked.
Arrange the chopped romaine lettuce on a large plate or in a bowl and top with the prepared tuna and chickpea mixture for a fresh, protein-packed lunch.
