Fagioli al Tonno

About

This salad is an Italian dish that literally translates to “Tuna Beans” It’s packed with protein and easy to make. Great for lunch or supper on a hot day. I added the leafy greens to this recipe for more vegetable content and the pepper for more zip. Other veggies that would go nicely and add a bit more colour include sliced red onion, halved cherry tomatoes and diced red pepper.
