Tuna with Pesto over Mixed Greens

Tuna with pesto is so quick to make and there is absolutely no cooking involved.  I got home late from the gym last night and didn't want to spend much time cooking, so I made some pesto with all the basil I got in my produce basket.  I added the pesto to a can of tuna and put it on a salad for my dinner.  I put a little olive oil and red wine vinegar on the mixed greens, and that was it.  So easy and yummy!  You could also eat this with lunch as a salad or even make it into a sandwich.
