Quick Lunch Ideas

BelleIsa

I thought I would share my fav tuna salad recipe because maybe some of you (like me) are sick of reading FFFCs.

Anyway, I make a double batch of this and it lasts in the fridge for at least a week (it might last longer but I always eat it all before it goes bad) and when I want a really quick lunch (like when DD is sleeping) I just mix some of it with a little mayo and put on some toasted bread.  Or, you can eat it like my DH does, right out of the bowl.

I'm always looking for really quick and easy (and tasty!) ideas for lunch so post yours!

 Tuna Salad

2 cans tuna in water, drained

1 can cannelli beans, rinsed and drained

1/2 cup finely chopped red onion 

1/2 cup finely chopped celery

 3 tbsp capers (plus a little of the juice)

zest and juice of a lemon

3 tbsp olive oil

salt & pepper to taste

Just mix it all up in a bowl and, like I said above, just mix some with a little mayo for a sandwich, or put some in a pita as it is (if you want to be even healthier and skip the mayo), or mix with some pasta for a quick pasta salad!

That sounds delicious! I love tuna (and Libby does too). I'll have to write this down and try it out soon.
