Cannellini Bean And Tuna Salad Recipes

TUNA AND BEAN SALAD

This is a mainstay in my house, something you can always throw together for an easy light meal. The authentic version would call for tuna packed in olive oil, but I actually prefer water-packed tuna. The salad packs a lot of protein, not just from the beans, but also from the tuna, which is also an excellent source of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Steps:

Place the onion in a bowl and add 1 teaspoon of the vinegar and cold water to cover. Let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water, then dry on paper towels.
In a medium bowl or salad bowl, combine the tuna, beans, onions, sage, and parsley.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the remaining vinegar, salt to taste, freshly ground pepper, garlic, and Dijon mustard. Whisk in the olive oil and the yogurt. Toss with the tuna and beans and serve, garnishing each plate with cucumber slices.

TWO-BEAN AND TUNA SALAD

This is the most amazing version of tuna and bean salad I've ever tasted. It incorporates crunchy green beans, a red onion made a little milder by soaking in water, tuna and a bean of your choice. I've used a lush bean called Good Mother Stallard, which really makes this salad stand out. You can substitute borlotti beans, pinto or white beans. If you're using canned beans, rinse them first. Whichever bean you choose, you'll have an amazing light and satisfying meal.

Steps:

Bring a medium-size pot of water to a boil and add salt to taste. Blanch green beans for 4 minutes (5 minutes if beans are thick), until just tender. Transfer to a bowl of cold water and drain. (Alternatively, steam beans for 4 to 5 minutes). Cut or break beans in half if very long.
Meanwhile, place sliced onion, if using, in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak 5 minutes. Drain, rinse and drain again on paper towels.
Drain tuna and place in a salad bowl. Break up with a fork. Add cooked dried beans, green beans, onion and herbs. Toss together.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together vinegar, salt, garlic, mustard and bean broth. Whisk in olive oil. Toss with tuna and bean mixture, and serve.
