Tuna Beans and Greens


This is a great lunch, easy to prepare and a good lunch box snack for those working people (I am an occasional working woman, so on my work days I need good portable food I can prepare in minutes)  Going along with my theme of the week being high avoidance of sugar and wheat based carbs, this recipe is both filling and tasty without leaving you wanting for more.

Tuna Beans and Greens Recipe

Ingredients
1 400g can cannellini beans
1 can tuna
2 lemons
2 teaspoons of garlic oil
chopped cucumber
baby spinach leaves
chopped spring onions
parsley


Method
Drain the can of beans in a colander and rinse with water.  Put the beans and tuna in a mixing bowl.  Squeeze the lemons over the tuna beans and drizzle over olive oil.  Season with salt and pepper and mix together.  Add the salad vegetables and toss together.



I packed this into my lunchbox today with a sprinkling of sesame seeds on top.  Delicious.
