Tuna and White Bean Bruschetta

By kikilu — March 11, 2013

I get calls, emails and texts all the time for easy yet tasty appetizers to pass or bring to parties. This is one of my favorites. First, it's super easy and you can make it in the morning as it tastes better that evening. Second, you don't need to break the bank on ingredients. And lastly, people will be surprised that it sounds so simple but has great flavor, plus there isn't any mayo. I served this on Christmas Eve and it turned out to be one of everyones favorite dishes.

You can also serve this as open-faced sandwhiches with avocado or as a scoop on top of mixed greens. Also, great for a buffet or a ladies lunch. It's easy to pack in air-tight containers, then plate and serve as your "app to pass". Endless possibilities and thank me later. When I demonstrated this at Mariano's, shoppers went nuts. We had a little love fest over a simple dish.

*Note — I use jarred Italian tuna because I think it's a better quality. It's more expensive but has a fuller flavor than the canned.
