Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
4 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 head chopped romaine lettuce
1 (6 ounce) can tuna in water (drained)
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans
1 cup chopped spring onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Whisk together yogurt, mayo, mustard, lemon juice and zest in a small bowl to blend.
  • In a large bowl add lettuce, beans, tuna, onions, celery, tomatoes and parsley.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad.
  • Season salad to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Toss to blend.
  • The lettuce can also be substituted for 4 cups of cooked pasta (the spiral kind works best I think).
  • Or just leave out the lettuce completely, cut the yogurt in half and use the salad as a pita filling.
