Tuna and beans are a standard Italian salad duo. Here, baked marinated

tofu makes a great companion for tuna. This salad makes a great companion

to many of the light Italian pasta dishes in this cookbook.

 

Combine all the ingredients except the lettuce in a serving bowl, and toss

together. To serve, arrange 2 or 3 lettuce leaves on each plate, and spoon

some salad over them.
