Pan Bagnat

1 6 1/2 oz. can solid white tuna in water, well drained

4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced

4 T. capers, drained

4 tomatoes, thinly sliced

1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced into rings

1 green bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced into rings

1 sweet red onion, thinly sliced

4 small loaves of peasant bread

Extra-virgin olive oil

Several large cloves of garlic, peeled and cut in half

Salt and freshly-ground pepper

Slice each loaf of bread in half horizontally, and rub the cut surfaces with the garlic cloves. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil on each half, and salt and pepper them.

For each sandwich, pile on slices of onion, tomato and bell pepper and sprinkle on a few capers. Top with 2 or 3 anchovy filets, chunks of the tuna and slices of hard-boiled egg. Put the tops on, squish them down, and wrap in lengths of waxed paper, twisting the ends.

Yield: 4 large sandwiches.

-- My favorite line from a movie & so true :-) The American President

They don't have a choice! Rob Rumson's the only one doing the talking. People want leadership. And in the absence of genuine leadership, they will listen to anyone who steps up to the microphone. They want leadership, Mr. President. They're so thirsty for it, they'll crawl through the desert toward a mirage, and when they discover there's no water, they'll drink the sand.

SHEPHERD (evenly) Lewis, we've had Presidents who were beloved, who couldn't find a coherent sentence with two hands and a flashlight. People don't drink the sand, 'cause they're thirsty, Lewis. They drink it 'cause they don't know the difference.
