Ingredients

SALAD

  • 1/2 cup Red Onion sliced
  • 1/2 cup Asparagus chopped
  • 1/2 cup Green Peas cooked and chilled
  • 1/4 cup Lentils cooked
  • 1 cup White Beans cooked and chilled
  • 1/2 cup Fingerling Potatoes cooked and halved
  • 4 ounces Tuna
  • 1/4 cup Beets sliced
  • 4 cups Arugula

MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

  • 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons White Wine Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1/8 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Most of the work involved in making this salad is all the prep work to either cook or chop the necessary ingredients. Slice the Onions and Asparagus and cook the Green Peas, Lentils, White Beans, and Potatoes according to package directions. This will probably take about 30 minutes total (most of which is for the lentils). To cook the potatoes, place them in a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Allow to cook for 25 to 30 minutes, while the lentils are cooking.
  • Once all the ingredients have been prepped, drain the tuna and place it in a large, very large, mixing bowl. Add in the onions, asparagus, peas, lentils, white beans, and potatoes. Toss until fully mixed.
  • Prepare the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a small bowl until fully combined. Set aside.
  • To arrange the salad layer the Arugula and Baby Kale on each plate and top with the tuna mixture. Sprinkle the Beets on top and drizzle with mustard vinaigrette.
