METHOD · 3 STEPS
- mix · ~1 min
Make the lemon vinaigrette.
In a large salad bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- assemble · ~2 min
Combine the main ingredients.
To the bowl with the vinaigrette, add the drained tuna, rinsed cannellini beans, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped parsley. Gently toss everything together until just combined.
TIPBe careful not to overmix, as this can break down the beans and tuna into a paste. - serve · ~1 min
Fold in arugula and serve.
Just before serving, add the fresh arugula to the bowl and gently fold it in. Serve immediately with whole-grain crackers on the side.
TIPAdding the arugula at the last minute ensures it stays crisp and doesn't become soggy.
