Easy Ahi Tuna Nicoise Salad
This Easy Ahi Tuna Nicoise Salad always reminds me of fresh salads eaten under a sun-filled blue sky in Nice, France where it originates. Traditionally made with tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, black olives and anchovies or tuna and dressed with olive oil, this salad is as French as it gets!
My take on this classic salad starts by boiling 4 organic eggs. I then start to layer up the salad on a large serving platter, starting with iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and olives. I add green beans, cooked baby potatoes and halved eggs. I finish the salad by drizzling a simple dressing over the top and sprinkling some fresh herbs.
To make my version of Easy Ahi Tuna Nicoise Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
