      Title: White Bean & Tuna Salad
 Categories: Seafood, Beans, Citrus, Herbs, Chilies
      Yield: 4 servings

      1 c  Red onion or shallot; chopped
      1    Lemon; zest & juice of -OR-
      2    Limes; zest & juice of
     10 oz Tuna in olive oil (2 cans);
           - up to 12 oz
     30 oz Cannellini or Great Northern
           - beans (2 cans); rinsed,
           - drained
    1/2 c  Parsley or arugula; chopped,
           - loose pack -OR-
      2 tb Mint; thin sliced
      1    Serrano chile; minced -OR-
      1 ts Red chile flakes
    1/2 ts Black pepper; fresh ground
           Salt and more olive oil

  Sprinkle some of the lemon juice over the chopped onions while you
  prepare the other ingredients. This will take some of the oniony
  edge off the onions.

  Drain the oil from the tuna and put the tuna into a large bowl. Add
  the beans to the tuna and gently stir to combine.

  Add the onions, herbs, black pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice
  and mix to combine. Add Tabasco or chili to taste.

  If the salad needs more acid, add a little more lemon juice. If the
  salad seems a little dry, add a little bit of olive oil. Add salt
  to taste.

  Chill before serving. This salad will last several days in the
  fridge, tightly covered.
