Tuscan Tuna Salad

Great summer time lunch or Dinner with your favoite soup. Bread Sticks are a hit.

I have tried this recipe and would make it again, tweaking it. Overall I liked this. I would add an extra can of tuna and an extra can of beans (dark kidney or garbanzo beans) to increase the protein content. I also added a can of water chestnuts, rinsed well (for crunch) and chopped(chopping is optional); Italian seasoning to taste, crushed, 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and substitute 1/2 cup Kraft Miracle Whip (Free or Light) Salad Dressing to 1/2 cup of the Kraft Light House Italian Dressing. Mix together the salad dressing, Miracle Whip, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning to let the flavors blend. Rinsing the water chestnuts and beans well removes any tinny or "off" taste. Chill until ready to serve. This can be made the night before with the dressing added, but don't add the lettuce and green onions until ready to serve.

I used white northern beans and added celery. I thought is was a nice change from a mayo based tuna salad! Perfect healthy lunch.

A good salad and good for you, too. However, it wasn't enough to fill up my husband after working all day. Probably best suited for a light lunch on a hot summer day.

Surprisingly good for being so easy. Great to make up to have on hand for our busy lives! It will help keep me out of drive-thru lines....

Very easy .Ingriedients all in my pantry ,so no mad dash to the store to buy one missing item.I added chopped tomatos.My husband liked the dish, i will make it again.

all i can say is that it is very good and me and my husband loves it alot.

This is a nutritious summer recipe. Easy to assemble. I will most likely make it again, but probably not for guests.
