How to make Tuna & White Bean Salad
Tips from the cook
- Drain the tuna and rinse the beans well, so the salad does not turn watery or taste of the tin.
- Chop the celery and spring onion small, so they spread evenly through the beans.
- Serve it on toasted bread or stuffed into a pitta for a quick lunch.
- No artichokes? Swap in chopped olives or sun-dried tomatoes.
