Featured recipe from Marilu's table * Tuscan tuna salad

Here's a main dish salad for a hot day (we've had a lot of those this summer!). It's full of flavor and loaded with protein.

You can make the salad vegan by substituting about 1 cup of gently smashed garbanzo beans for the tuna. Or use your favorite bean (we like garbanzos because they have a texture similar to tuna when they're smashed a little).
