Beans and Tuna Salad
This simple salad consists of only a few ingredients: cannellini beans, some sweet onion, Italian tuna packed in olive oil, salt, black pepper, a dash of red wine vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil!
I have had a love affair with Italian tuna for years, since I first tasted it. Every trip, I bring home at least a dozen cans. The last time I did so, a week later, there it was in my very own local grocery store! I still bring home a few cans “just in case”!
I made a double batch of this salad for house guests for lunch, and it was quite a hit!
Looks great. I know what you mean about that Italian tuna – magnifico
It looks wonderful Palma. I get cravings for this salad!
I’m also a big fan of the tonno in Italia.
Love it! This salad looks great–and healthy.
This is one of my favorite quick meals, and, as usual, yours looks so good that I want to reach right through my computer screen and grab a bite!
Can anyone who has tasted tuna packed in olive oil, Italian or Spanish style, ever bear to have that packed in water stuff? Have you ever tried ventresca, the belly? What the Japanese call toro? Succulent.
I know you like to schlepp, Palma, but did you know that wonderful tuna can be delivered to your doorstep by one of a dozen or more online grocers? What you should be bringing back is premium quality dried porcini and Tuscan pine nuts.
