Tuna White Bean Salad

This is the Tuna White Bean Salad of my dreams. Easy to make, and packed with flaky tuna, creamy white beans, crunchy celery and red onion, and tossed a light dressing made with just enough low-fat mayo, lemon juice, and acidic white wine vinegar. Pair with hearty whole-grain bread and serve with crisp romaine lettuce and sliced tomatoes.

Spectacular option for tuna fish and white beans. Double the recipe for the dressing, added 1 t. sugar and 2 T. Olive oil to the dressing to make it my own. This one's a keeper and it now resides in my private recipe box. Thank you for sharing.

WOW! This recipe is definitely a keeper! The salad does taste like Dean & Deluca Tuna Bean Salad. Substitutions I use: Lime juice for lemon and Trader Joe seasoning salt for the salt. A GREAT salad loaded with protein😊
