Flott Tuna

The other day at Vivande Carlo was so busy he missed lunch. When he finally took a break he broke open a can of Flott Tuna. In a matter of minutes he created an amazing treat.

Carlo scooped cooked cannelloni beans into a bowl and added chopped red onion, chunks of peeled orange, and a couple dashes of lemon juice. He mixed in the Flott Tuna (with olive oil) and topped it off with Sicilian coarse ground salt and plenty of black pepper.

He quietly enjoyed his creation spread on fresh chunks of Italian bread and a glass of Sicilian white wine. Carlo was content.

Ciao,
Giorgio

Had to Relax

I was so busy in the kitchen and some folks had me in such a lousy mood that I did not have time to eat some lunch. I took a break mid-afternoon and went home where I had some cooked cannelloni beans, a small can of Flott Tuna packed in olive oil, some red onion, an orange and some lemons. I mixed the beans and tuna, chopped red onion, chunks of peeled orange, and some lemon juice. Some Sicilian coarse ground salt, and plenty of black pepper brought the whole thing together. What a treat that was with chunks of bread. I sipped a glass of Grecanico, a Sicilian white wine, and suddenly was calm and happy.

Ciao,
Carlo
