Feeding yourself cheaply and well is not a paradox. This combo is not only budget friendly, but also high in protein - enough to keep you satisfied through your work day until you get home for dinner.
So easy to make - just a couple of minutes of chopping and the opening of 2 cans. No high tech culinary skills required!
This makes 2 cups.
Here's what you'll need:
1 can tuna (170)
1 can mixed beans(398 ml/14 oz),
drained and rinsed
1/4 C chopped green pimento olives
1/4 C chopped parsley
(not shown as it was an after thought!)
2 T olive oil
1/8 t cayenne pepper (optional)
Add tuna, beans, olives and oil.
Mix in parsley, a few grindings of black pepper
and cayenne if using.
Best served chilled,
This stupid easy to make lunch
with basic pantry ingredients is
loaded with protein, fibre, and taste!
Looks very tasty. It reminds me of something my mother used to make, she added, cubed fresh tomatoe and chopped green onions. Keep it coming, everything is delicious.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of those additions! In fact, I have them on hand and am going to add them to the salad which is still in my fridge! Thx for the feedback and please keep checking in!
