Ingredients:

400g packet Uncle Ben's® Microwave Brown Rice
2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
65.63 gm lemon juice
18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
1 large zucchini
62.50 ml fresh dill sprigs
400g can chickpeas
1 celery stalk
180g tub green olive halves in herbs
425g can tuna in olive oil
40g baby rocket
Lemon zest, to serve

Instructions:

Prepare fluffy and perfectly cooked rice as per the instructions on the package.
As the rice simmers, mix together lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil in a spacious bowl. Use a vegetable peeler to create zucchini ribbons and add them to the bowl. Gently tear dill into the mixture. Season with salt and pepper, then toss everything together until well combined.
First, drain the chickpeas and add half of them to the zucchini mixture. Then, place the remaining chickpeas in a bowl and roughly mash them with a fork. Thinly slice the celery and add it to the zucchini mixture along with the olives, tuna, and rocket. Toss everything together to combine.
Divide mixture into individual bowls, then generously dust with zest before serving.
