INSTRUCTIONS
SERVINGS DAIRY-FREE In Italy, tuna and white beans are a classic salad combination. Here we use baked, marinated tofu in place of the tuna with wonderful results. A light pasta dish makes a nice accompaniment to this salad In large serving bowl, combine all ingredients except lettuce and toss to mix. To serve, arrange 2 or 3 lettuce leaves on each plate and spoon some salad over them. PER SERVING: 135 CAL.; 10G PROT.; 7G TOTAL FAT (1G SAT. FAT); 11G CARB.; 0 CHOL.; 257MG SOD.; 3G FIBER.
