3. Still Hungry?

This streamlined version of a northern Italian idea is perfect for a summer evening: no-fuss, no-cook and big taste. You can even make it ahead and store it, covered, in the refrigerator for several days. If you do, use it as a wrap filling for the next day.

Notes:

Ingredient Tip

When you use canned beans in a recipe, be sure to rinse them first in a colander under cold running water, as their canning liquid often contains a fair amount of sodium.

Make Ahead Tip

Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

  • Good, but I tweaked it a little

    Good recipe, but I find that using solid white tuna is better. The tuna salad doesn\\\'t get as soggy. Make sure you drain water from the can tuna real well. Try adding a little drizzle of honey and it tastes even better.
