Ingredients You'll Need

2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed

1 sprig fresh sage
Pinch of crushed red-pepper flakes
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (is-ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon red-wine vinegar
4 1/4-inch-thick diagonal slices pugliese or country-style bread, halved crosswise
1 (6-3-ounce) can oil-packed Italian tuna
8 Cerignola olives, pitted and thinly sliced
