Sourdough Panzanella With Tuna, White Beans and Rosemary

Submitted by Geema

"You don't have to use sourdough...any artisan bread would be good. My favorite is crusty olive or roasted garlic. You can also add some chicken or shrimp to this salad instead of the canned tuna. It's just a delicious, healthy, versatile recipe."
