Store Cupboard Tuna Salad

Hey Guys,

This is a great and easy dinner to prepare.  All ingredients are pretty much store cupboard essentials or easy to purchase foods.  I do my big shop in Aldi each week and nearly all ingredients can be bought there. Cheap, cheerful and so easy to prepare. It's a salad that my husband loves too and it actually fills him :)

The intense flavours of sun dried tomatoes and pesto can transform a tin of tuna into something really special.  You can make this 2 to 3 hours ahead- store in the fridge until ready to serve.

I make this every week and I hope you give it a go xx





Ingredients

4 tbsp chopped sun dried tomatoes

2 x 400g tins of mixed beans drained and rinsed

4 small spring onions, trimmed and sliced at an angle

120ml olive oil

2 tbsp red wine vinegar

2 tbsp pesto

2 x 185g tins of tuna, drained and broken into chunks

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method

In a bowl mix together all the ingredients apart from the tuna, then carefully stir in the tuna keeping it in chunks. Season with salt and pepper to taste then serve. Serve with nice crusty bread if you desire. This will feed 4 to 6 people and take about 5 minutes to prepare!
