Tuna and White Bean Salad
This great summer salad makes a hearty lunch or dinner thanks to 24 g of protein and 8 g of fiber. This recommends keeping the bean and tomato mixture separate from the spinach until you’re ready to serve.

- ½ cup artichoke hearts, chopped
- ½ bunch fresh parsley, stems removed and discarded, chopped (about ½ cup)
- 8 cups fresh spinach (or arugula)
