Youre just 15 minutes away from a vibrant protein-packed salad.

Repurposing the oil from the jar is a brilliant way to get more bang for your buck.

Serve the mixture over peppery arugula for a salad we predict you’ll keep on heavy rotation.

This recipe was developed by Melissa Gray.

Place in a large bowl and add chickpeas, tomatoes, cheese, olives, salt, and pepper.

Toss gently to combine.

Pour reserved oil from tuna through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl.

Whisk in lemon juice until bright yellow and emulsified, about 1 minute.

Drizzle over tuna mixture; stir to combine.

Gently stir in pita chips and, if using, parsley.
