Instruction

  • Prepare the dressing by whisking all ingredients together. Set aside.
  • Place potatoes in a medium sized pot along with 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. When cooled a bit, cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • While potatoes are cooking, you can prepare the green beans. Trim ends and place green beans in a medium sized pot and cover with water. Add ¼ teaspoon salt and bring water to a boil. Simmer for 3 minutes or until beans are bright green. Strain beans into a colander and immediately run them under cold water to stop the cooking.
  • Arrange lettuce in a bowl. Add tuna, hard-boiled eggs, potatoes, green beans, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, and nicoise olives to the bowl, then drizzle the desired amount of dressing on top.
