Lemon, Tuna and White Bean Salad Preparation
Canned tuna and white beans make this salad easy to prepare, which is especially nice for a weeknight dinner. The cannellini beans provide iron and some calcium. 1. In a mixing bowl, combine the beans and onion. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, clam juice, oil, thyme, oregano, lemon peel and pepper. Add the dressing to the beans and onion, and toss to mix. Add the tuna and parsley and stir gently to combine, just enough to break the tuna into clumps. Taste and add salt if desired. 2. Let the salad stand for 10 minutes to blend the flavors, or refrigerate up to 1 hour before serving. To serve, spoon over a bed of arugula and garnish with tomato wedges.
