Beans, Green French Style
Tuna Steak
Baby Spinach
Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Walnuts
Olive Oil
Balsamic Vinegar
Lentils
1. Ensure green beans are trimmed, and walnuts roughly chopped. Bring a medium-sized saucepan of water to the boil. 
 
2. Place egg carefully into pan and then boil. 
 
3. After 8 minutes drop in the green beans and simmer for a further minute. 
 
4. At the same time heat the coconut oil in a frying pan over a medium to high heat. 
 
5. Place the tuna in the pan and fry for 1 minute on each side. Increase time by a minute on each side if your preference is for it to more cooked. Remove the tuna from the pan to rest and season to taste. 
 
6. Prepare lentils according to packet instructions. 
 
7. Drain the egg and beans in a sieve or colander, then run under cold water until cool enough to handle. 
 
8. Peel the egg and slice in half. Put the beans, lentils, spinach, sundried tomatoes, walnuts, olive oil and vinegar into a bowl, along with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Toss all the ingredients together and then place on plate. 
 
9. Place the tuna on top of the salad – you may slice the tuna according to presentation preference.
