Instructions
-
Cook the Potatoes and Eggs: Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool. Meanwhile, place the eggs in a separate pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Rinse under cold water, peel, and quarter.
-
Prepare the Green Beans: Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
-
Assemble the Salad: Arrange the mixed salad greens on a large serving platter. Arrange the cooked potatoes, eggs, green beans, cherry tomatoes, Niçoise olives, and tuna over the greens.
-
Make the Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
-
Serve: Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad or serve it on the side. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately.
