Mediterranean Tuna-Bean Spinach Salad

Write a Review
This Mediterranean-style tuna-bean spinach salad is simultaneously complex in flavor, yet simple to prepare. Vital Choice Pacific Albacore Tuna is sustainably line-caught by hand on small troll boats, frozen at sea and cooked only once, for fresher flavor, firmer texture and markedly higher omega-3 levels than supermarket brands.
