Recipe for Tuna, bean and watercress salad
Serves one hungry person
Feel free to try this using other beans such as borlotti beans, but nothing as huge as butter beans.
1 small tin of good quality tuna in olive oil, roughly drained
1 400g can of canenllini beans (white kidney beans), drained and rinsed
2 spring onions (scallions)
1 large handful watercress leaves
Juice of half a lemon (or the equivalent amount from one of those squeezy bottles of ready squeezed if that is what you have in)
Pepper
Snip the spring onions into small pieces, straight into a large bowl. Using the same scissors, snip the watercress into the bowl in roughly 2 inch lengths (you can use a knife and chopping board for these steps but this way there is less to wash up).
Add the beans, tuna and lemon juice to the bowl and toss.
Season with pepper to taste.
