NutritionBabes Tuna Vegetable Salad

2 cans Wild Planet, Wild Albacore Tuna - no salt added with liquid (www.wildplanetfoods.com)

1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced

1 can (15 oz) Garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained

1 tomato, seeded and diced

1/2 small red onion, peeled and diced

1/2 red pepper, seeded and diced

2 carrots, peeled and diced

4 tablespoons canola mayonnaise

1/2 recipe of NutritionBabes Balsamic Dressing

When using Wild Planet Tuna, there is no need to drain liquid.  Place tuna in a medium size bowl and break apart well with a fork.  Add remaining ingredients except lettuce and mix well.  Break apart lettuce leaves and place on 4 plates, add 1/4 of tuna mixture on top of each plate.  Garnish with lemon wedges.

Tips and Twists:

If using another tuna beside Wild Planet you will need 4 (5 oz) cans of Chunk White Tuna, drained and rinsed.  Substitute your favorite vegetable and beans, anything goes!
