Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Drain the tuna and corn

    Open the 2 cans of tuna and the 2 small cans of corn, then tip them into the colander. Let them drain well so the salad doesn't get soggy.

    Tip · Press the tuna down in the colander with the back of a fork to squeeze out all the liquid, otherwise the vinaigrette gets watered down.

  2. Make the lemon vinaigrette

    Squeeze 1 lemon into the small bowl to get about 3 tbsp of juice. Add the 1 tbsp of homemade vinaigrette and a pinch of salt and pepper, then whisk with a fork.

  3. Wash the greens

    Rinse the 100 g of salad greens and spin them dry. Put them in the bottom of the mixing bowl.

  4. Cut the avocados

    Halve the 2 avocados, remove the pit and the skin, then cut the flesh into dice or slices. Drizzle them right away with a little vinaigrette so they don't brown.

    Tip · Drizzle the avocado with lemon juice as soon as it's cut and only toss at the last minute so it doesn't get mashed.

  5. Put the salad together

    Add the tuna, flaked with a fork, the corn and the avocados to the mixing bowl. Cut the second lemon into wedges for serving.

  6. Season and serve

    Drizzle the rest of the vinaigrette over the salad, toss gently, taste and adjust the salt and pepper. Serve with the lemon wedges.
