Packed full of greens, fish and beans. Superheros may not have the time to grill a tuna steak, so canned tuna is the perfect mighty ingredient.
A quick and healthful lunch for all those on-the-go. This salad takes minutes to toss together. Add what you like and take out what you're not crazy about, try adding broccoli florets, capers & sun-dried tomatoes.
