2 tbs fresh mint
1/3 cup basil
1/2 cup arugula (rocket)
4 snowpeas (mange-tout)
1oz (30g) low fat ricotta
.3oz (10g) pecorino cheese
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 small can, chunky style tuna in olive oil
salt and pepper
Cook the beans in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, until al dente and remove skins.
Shave the pecorino cheese, crumble the ricotta and chop the herbs.
Add into a large mixing bowl with the remaining ingredients, leaving a tiny bit of oil from the tuna to help make the dressing.
Toss and season to taste.
(Enjoy with a nice crisp white wine)
