White Bean and Tuna Pasta Salad image

You can also add a hard-boiled egg or 2 to this recipe as well as grape tomatoes, chunked artichoke hearts, or pitted olives. If you are starting with dry beans, simmer with a clove of garlic and a bay leaf or sprig of rosemary to the water to boost flavor. This is a quick and easy pasta salad with great flavors.
