For me lettuce is like a blank canvas just waiting to be built upon. I rarely make the same salad twice. Depending on my mood there is always something different to be added or taken away. I do like to start with a nice mix of greens: butter lettuce, arugula, red leaf and sometimes endive and go from there. This week's combination includes tuna, feta, white beans, roasted red peppers and avocados.
I like really light dressings on my salads. My favorite, which I used here, is a combination of olive oil and lemon juice seasoned with salt and pepper. Quick, easy and perfect for a weekday lunch...this is what's inside my Brown Bag this week.
Tuna, White Bean & Avocado Salad
Mixed greens
1 avocado, diced
1 can white beans, drained
Feta cheese, crumbled
Roasted red peppers
Italian tuna, packed in oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Olive oil
Mix ingredients together. Combine 1 part lemon juice with 2 parts oil. Drizzle on salad. Season with salt and pepper.
rarely do I make the same salad twice, but THIS looks good enough to repeat often!
