Packed with protein and fiber, this tuna and bean salad is ready in a flash. Serve with warm, crusty bread or pack it in a pita for a sandwich. For an extra kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper or cayenne.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

1 15- to 19-ounce can beans, such as chickpeas, black-eyed peas or kidney beans, rinsed

2 5- to 6-ounce cans water-packed chunk light tuna, drained and flaked (see Note)

1 large red bell pepper, finely diced

1/2 cup finely chopped red onion

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley, divided

4 teaspoons capers, rinsed

1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary

1/2 cup lemon juice, divided

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

Freshly ground pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon salt

8 cups mixed salad greens

Note: Chunk light tuna, which comes from the smaller skipjack or yellowfin, has less mercury than canned white albacore tuna. FDA/EPA advice recommends no more than 6 ounces of albacore a week; up to 12 ounces canned light tuna is considered safe.

Light and yummy!

I didn't even use the lettuce part to eat the bean salad(I used Chick Peas). I just ate it out of a bowl. Very filling.
