Canned tuna and white beans make this salad easy to prepare, which is
especially nice for a weeknight dinner. The cannellini beans provide
iron and some calcium. In a mixing bowl, combine the beans and onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, clam juice, oil,
thyme, oregano, lemon peel and pepper. Add the dressing to the beans
and onion, and toss to mix. Add the tuna and parsley and stir gently
to combine, just enough to break the tuna into clumps. Taste and add
salt if desired. Let the salad stand for 10 minutes to blend the
flavors, or refrigerate up to 1 hour before serving. To serve, spoon
over a bed of arugula and garnish with tomato wedges. Nutritional
