To make Tuna Salad with Garlic Toasts, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine 1 can of cannellini beans, 1 can of butter beans, 1 thinly sliced red onion, lemon juice from half a lemon, 4 tablespoons of olive oil and a small bunch of freshly chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper then toss to mix everything together. Set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.
Generously brush the bread slices with some olive oil.
On a hot griddle, toast the bread until slightly charred.
Once toasted, transfer to a plate and rub with peeled garlic cloves for flavor.
When ready, add 2 cans of drained tuna to the bowl of marinating beans along with arugula leaves. Toss to combine the salad well.
