Bean and tuna salad 



The bean salad with tuna is a tasty and quick dish to prepare. The bean and tuna salad is a dish that my grandmother and my mother always prepare, not being a lover of beans I have always snubbed this recipe a bit but since my wife likes it very much, yesterday I prepared it for her and this is the result. I used cannellini beans already boiled to make the recipe even easier and faster but you can also use dried beans or better yet, fresh ones ;) With this ''bean salad I hope to have given you a cue for your lunch today, maybe increasing a little'' the doses if you want to propose it as a single dish. Happy Wednesday to those who pass by here.

It is a legume salad very easy to prepare and very fast. If we do not want to dirty even a pan we can use ready-made beans. Ready-made beans, on the other hand, come to our rescue when we decide to prepare this salad at the last minute. This quick lunch is also very convenient to take to the office or during a pleasant trip out of town. In fact, we can prepare it in advance and store it in the fridge. In this way the salad will be even more tasty and balanced. Try this bean salad with tuna and let me know what you think of this genuine and tasty dish.

Ingredients

300 gr of boiled cannellini beans
160 gr of canned tuna
1 new onion
1 lemon
parsley
salt
oil

PROCEDURE

If you decide to use dried beans, soak them in cold water with a pinch of baking soda for 12 hours. Rinse the beans, put them in a saucepan with water and cook for 40 minutes. Cut the new onion into thin slices and then in half. Drain the beans from the cooking water keeping aside only a ladle and put them in a bowl together with the natural tuna. Add the onion, parsley, salt and oil. Mix the bean and tuna salad and put a fridge to cool for at least half an hour. Serve the beans salad with a slice of lemon.
