Yield

4 Servings

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1⁄2 tablespoon soy sauce (low-sodium)
1 tablespoon vinegar, white
1⁄2 cup yogurt, low-fat (plain)
1⁄2 teaspoon ginger, ground
1⁄2 lemon juice
  salt (to taste)
  black pepper (to taste)
1⁄2 cucumber (thinly sliced)
1 tomato (diced)
1⁄2 pound spinach
1 cup beans, garbanzo (drained)
1 can tuna (water-packed, drained)

Instructions

Place all dressing ingredients in a small- to medium-sized mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Add the cucumber and the tomato, and gently stir to coat the vegetables with dressing. Allow this mixture to sit, marinating the vegetables a bit, while preparing the rest of the salad.

Next, place spinach, garbanzo beans, and tuna in a very large salad bowl or large stainless-steel mixing bowl. Add the dressing and veggie mixture and toss thoroughly but gently to combine.
