TWO-BEAN AND TUNA SALAD



Two-Bean and Tuna Salad image

This is the most amazing version of tuna and bean salad I've ever tasted. It incorporates crunchy green beans, a red onion made a little milder by soaking in water, tuna and a bean of your choice. I've used a lush bean called Good Mother Stallard, which really makes this salad stand out. You can substitute borlotti beans, pinto or white beans. If you're using canned beans, rinse them first. Whichever bean you choose, you'll have an amazing light and satisfying meal.

Time 15m

Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound green beans, trimmed
1 small red onion, cut in half and sliced in half-moons (optional)
2 5-ounce cans tuna (packed in water or olive oil), drained
1 1/2 cups cooked Good Mother Stallard, borlotti, pinto or white beans (if using canned beans, rinse)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram or sage
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
Salt to taste
1 garlic clove, minced or puréed
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons bean broth
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a medium-size pot of water to a boil and add salt to taste. Blanch green beans for 4 minutes (5 minutes if beans are thick), until just tender. Transfer to a bowl of cold water and drain. (Alternatively, steam beans for 4 to 5 minutes). Cut or break beans in half if very long.
  • Meanwhile, place sliced onion, if using, in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak 5 minutes. Drain, rinse and drain again on paper towels.
  • Drain tuna and place in a salad bowl. Break up with a fork. Add cooked dried beans, green beans, onion and herbs. Toss together.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together vinegar, salt, garlic, mustard and bean broth. Whisk in olive oil. Toss with tuna and bean mixture, and serve.

WHITE BEAN & TUNA SALAD



White Bean & Tuna Salad image

If you are going to make a white bean & tuna salad (which, if you've never had it, might not sound good, but is) with canned goods, this is a good recipe. This is from a book called _Culinary Journey to the Mediterranean. You can serve this with pita bread or pita chips, and/or on a bed of arugula or watercress.

TUNA AND BEAN SALAD



Tuna and Bean Salad image

This is a mainstay in my house, something you can always throw together for an easy light meal. The authentic version would call for tuna packed in olive oil, but I actually prefer water-packed tuna. The salad packs a lot of protein, not just from the beans, but also from the tuna, which is also an excellent source of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 15m

Yield Serves 2 as a main dish, 4 as a starter

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 small or 1/2 medium red onion, peeled and very thinly sliced
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
1 (6 1/2-ounce) can water-packed tuna, drained
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans or borlotti beans, drained through a strainer and rinsed
3 fresh sage leaves, slivered
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 small or medium garlic clove, finely minced
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon plain low-fat or nonfat yogurt (or omit and use 4 tablespoons olive oil)
1/2 Japanese cucumber, cut in half lengthwise and sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the onion in a bowl and add 1 teaspoon of the vinegar and cold water to cover. Let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water, then dry on paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl or salad bowl, combine the tuna, beans, onions, sage, and parsley.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the remaining vinegar, salt to taste, freshly ground pepper, garlic, and Dijon mustard. Whisk in the olive oil and the yogurt. Toss with the tuna and beans and serve, garnishing each plate with cucumber slices.

WARM TUNA AND BEAN SALAD



Warm Tuna and Bean Salad image

I got this recipe when I was at a crafts fair in Scotland. There was a cooking demonstration in the old fish market hall by the harbour, you could taste the food and get the recipe. I love having tuna salad during the summer months, when it's to warm to cook and all you want is a light meal. If you don't want to make your own dressing it's also nice with French Dressing.
