Take tuna salad to the next level with the addition of canned cannellini beans, now available in our Marketplace. Or maybe we’re taking bean salad to the next level with the addition of tuna? Regardless, the creamy beans mixed with salty tuna, fresh herbs, and bright lemon juice makes for the most delicious bite—whether that’s for lunch, dinner, or an afternoon snack. We like to eat our tuna bean salad on open-faced toasts. It just feels a little fancier than the mayo-heavy tuna salads we ate as kids.
