Tuna & Bean Mason Jar Salad

Published: 8/3/2026

Ingredients (1 jar)

• 1 can (5 oz / 140 g) tuna in water, drained
• 1/2 cup (90 g) canned cannellini beans or chickpeas, rinsed
• 2 cups (40 g) mixed spring greens
• 1/4 cup (60 g) non-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp (1 g) black pepper

Instructions

1. In the bottom of a 32-oz mason jar, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and pepper.
2. Add the rinsed beans directly on top of the dressing. Follow with the drained tuna. This layering prevents the tuna and greens from getting soggy.
3. Top with the mixed greens. Seal the jar. When ready to eat, shake the jar vigorously to distribute the dressing.

Pro Tips

• Layering Is Key: The specific layering — dressing, beans, tuna, greens — keeps everything crisp until you’re ready to eat. Shake at the end to combine.
