Black Bean Tuna Salad image

A quick and healthy tuna salad with a different twist. I put this together for lunch today, just tossing together what sounded good. The flavors came together nicely, I thought, so I am posting the recipe. It was great served in a whole-wheat tortilla.

Time 10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (6 ounce) cans solid albacore tuna, drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed (I do this in a strainer)
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
3 tablespoons chopped red onions
1 -2 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup mayonnaise (I used light)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium-sized bowl, flake tuna with a fork; add beans, chiles, onions, and cilantro and toss to combine.
  • In a small bowl, stir together remaining ingredients; add to tuna mixture and carefully toss to incorporate ingredients.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings, if desired.

This salad was very easy to make and it was delicious! I used canned tuna and black beans, and I added some chopped celery and onion. I will definitely be making this again.

This salad was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland. I think it would have been better with some added spices or herbs.

I've made this salad twice now and it's been a hit both times. It's a great way to use up leftover tuna and black beans. I also like that it's a healthy and filling salad.

This recipe was delicious! I made it for my family and they loved it. The black beans and tuna add a great flavor and texture to the salad. I will definitely be making this again.
