White Bean, Tuna, and Arugula Salad

I made a little batch of this for lunches at work. It’s easy, pretty healthy, and satisfying too!

White Bean, Tuna, and Arugula Salad
Serves 1-2

zest and juice from 1 small lemon
1 clove garlic, pressed
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
a few dashes hot sauce (I like Frank’s Red Hot)
1 15-oz can canellini or northern beans, drained and rinsed
1 6-oz can high quality tuna packed in olive oil
1/2 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
2-3 oz baby arugula

Whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, salt, pepper, and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Add the beans and tuna and toss well to combine. Chill for an hour or more to let the flavors meld. Just before serving, add the tomatoes and arugula and toss again to combine.
