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.

This is based on a classic Italian salad that can be thrown together with pantry items. All you need from the market is the cucumber, which makes a beautiful garnish for the high-protein tuna-and-bean mix.

- Set aside 1 tablespoon of the dressing. Toss the rest with the tuna and beans. Toss the spiralized cucumbers with the remaining dressing. Arrange the tuna-and-beans salad in a bowl or on a platter, and top with the cucumbers.
- ADVANCE PREPARATION: The tuna-and-beans salad, without the cucumbers, will keep for a couple of days in the refrigerator.

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.
