Refreshing Tuna & Caper Vinaigrette Lunch Bowl
Ingredients
- 2 cans of tuna in water (5 oz each), drained
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 1/4 cup bottled vinaigrette
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Prepare the Base:
- In a large mixing bowl, add 2 cups of baby spinach leaves, 1 cup of halved cherry tomatoes, and 1/4 thinly sliced red onion.
2. Prepare the Tuna Mixture:
- In another medium-sized bowl, combine 2 drained cans of tuna and 2 tablespoons of drained capers.
- Pour in 1/4 cup of bottled vinaigrette.
- Gently mix until the vinaigrette is well distributed, ensuring the tuna maintains some of its texture.
3. Assemble the Lunch Bowl:
- Add the tuna mixture to the bowl with the spinach, tomatoes, and red onions.
- Toss gently to combine all ingredients, ensuring the vinaigrette coats the vegetables lightly as well.
4. Seasoning:
- Taste the assembled bowl and season with salt and black pepper as desired. A light hand is typically best to not overpower the subtle flavors of the capers and vinaigrette.
5. Final Touch:
- Transfer the mixture into serving bowls for an appealing presentation.
