The flaxseed oil in the vinaigrette dressing adds a great flavor-much like that of pecans. 1/2 cup reduced sodium Chicken Broth 2 Shallots, finely chopped 3 Tbspns chopped flat-leaf Parsley 1 Tbspn Flaxseed Oil 2 Teaspoons Balsamic Vineager 1 Teaspoon Dijon Mustard 1/4 Teaspoon Salt 1/4 Teaspoon freshly ground Black Pepper 3 Cups finely shredded Romaine Lettuce 3 Cups finely shredded Arugula Leaves 3 Plum Tomatoes, finely chopped 2 (6-ounce) cans water packed, solid white Tuna, drained 2 assorted color Bell Peppers, finely chopped 1 Cup canned White Beans, rinsed and drained 1 small Red Onion, finely chopped Whisk the broth, shallots, parsley, oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
