February is Heart Health Month and we're celebrating with a delicious, heart healthy recipe: Spinach Salad with Tuna.

This Tasty Tuesday, we've found a delicious, heart healthy recipe from Delish.com that has not one, not two, but three main ingredients that are good for your heart: spinach; tuna; and legumes! Spinach contains heart benefitting nutrients such as Coenzyme Q10, whereas, tuna is packed with omega-3s which also support heart health (among other things!). Finally, legumes do not contain cholesterol, helping you maintain a low cholesterol diet and keeping your heart healthy.

Ingredients for Dressing:

• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 ripe avocado
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
• 2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives

Ingredients for Salad:

• 1 package (5-ounce) baby spinach
•  2 stalks celery
• 1 medium red pepper
• 1 can (15-ounce) white kidney (cannellini) beans
•  2 cans (5 ounces each) tuna packed in water
• 1 stick of PGX Daily Singles per serving
  

Directions:

1. To make the dressing: Mix lemon juice, oil, water, mustard, half of avocado, cayenne pepper, and salt in a blender, blend until smooth. Scrape sides of the container occasionally and then stir in parsley, finely chopped, and chives.
2. To make the salad: Thinly slice celery and red pepper. Rinse and drain beans. Drain cans of tuna. Toss spinach, celery, pepper, beans, and tuna in a large bowl with the dressing and dish out servings.
   
3. Thinly slice remaining avocado and arrange on top of salads.
   
4. Sprinkle 1 stick of PGX Daily Singles on top of each serving.
