Tuna, Avocado, Buttterbean, and Dill Salad

Tuna, Avocado, Buttterbean, and Dill Salad

The perfect quick salad to whip up with just pantry ingredients and serve family-style in the middle of the table with warm crusty bread for ‘make your own sarnies’.

I’ve been trying to grow a thing or two in the garden, and I managed to grow the most amazing, fresh and flavourful  dill… I went to sleep literally dreaming of making this salad.

Creamy from the butterbeans and avocado, sharp from the minced onion, tangy and refreshing from the lemon and dill with flavour bursting chunks of tuna all wrapped up in crisp, crunchy lettuce leaves… this is my kind of salad!
