tuna

cherry tomatoes, halved (quartered if large)

black olives, chopped

shallot, finely chopped

In a large bowl, combine beans, tuna, tomatoes, olives, shallot and parsley. Drizzle oil and lemon juice over mixture. Toss well, season with salt and pepper, and serve over greens, if desired.


This recipe is very simple, yet delicious. I would recommend making the salad to your own liking. If you like more olives add them; less oil or shallot. I would make this again, tweaking the recipe for a more subtle flavor, to take it to a barbecue.
