Summer Tuna Salad July 6, 2009

Filed under: Recipes — The Oswald's @ 4:26 pm

I love tuna salad, which is weird because I don’t like mayo.  Anyway, I found this really yummy and healthy recipe and just had to share it.  What I love is the fact that there isn’t any mayo, so it’s the perfect picnic dish.

Tuscan-Style Tuna Salad

  • 2 6-oz cans chunk light tuna, drained (I like the pkgs best & in water)
  • 1 15-oz can cannellini or great northern beans, rinsed
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 4 scallions, trimmed and sliced
  • 2 TBSP extra-virgin olive oil (I like using good olive oil b/c it tastes best ‘raw’)
  • 2 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • fresh pepper to taste

Combine ingredients and stir gently.  Refridgerate until ready to serve.  Makes 4 (1 cup) servings.
