Instructions
- Add red bell pepper, red onion, cucumber, albacore tuna fish, garlic, chickpeas, black olives and lemon zest in a large mixing bowl and mix.
- Drizzle olive oil, lemon juice and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve cold. Enjoy!
Notes
- Cut the vegetables into small and evenly sized pieces. They will be easier to combine when you mix it and it will be easier to eat.
- Use fresh lemon juice rather than bottled. It has a much brighter and fresher flavor and makes all the difference!
- Chickpeas are very filling and turn this salad into a fuller meal. You can substitute these with black beans or white beans if that's what you have.
