1. Halve the onion and slice it as thinly as possible. Tip into a salad bowl and flake in the tuna. Gently stir in the butterbeans and cherry tomatoes.
2. Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice and mustard together, then season. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and scatter the parsley over. Mix gently to combine and serve straight away.

  Lovely recipe - used cannelini beans as well as the butter beans & it was yummy. Very quick & easy to make & I served it up for a girlie lunch with white crusty bread & it was very popular! Would definitely make again.

  Very tasty. I served this salad for our lunch last Sunday and every body loved it. I added garlic and an hand full of roasted Pine nuts. I would definitely make this salad again.

  Love this recipe. I have just had half a portion with a turkey steak and it made a lovely filling dinner. I had to use a smidgen more olive oil to make a good dressing but it was lovely.
