GRILLED TUNA AND WHITE BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the beans, then with cold water in a large pot and add the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf and cook until the beans are soft, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Drain the beans and pick out the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf. Place the beans in a bowl and toss with a couple tablespoons each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Fold in the red onion and thyme, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
