Arugula & Tuna Jar Salad
I love the ingredient combination in this Arugula & Tuna Jar Salad. I often prepare a few jar salads at the weekend if I know I have a busy week ahead. This salad always makes it into my mason jar salad prep because it tastes so good!
When I make this one, I start by making a dressing from oil, lemon, salt and pepper at the bottom of the jar. Next I add my ingredients in a particular order – tuna, followed by cucumber, chickpeas, onion and arugula always goes in last. When lunchtime rolls around, I simply give the jar a good shake and dig right in.
To make my version of Arugula & Tuna Jar Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
