Ingredients

Servings

For the Salad:

  • 12 ounces baby potato halved
  • 8 ounces green beans trimmed
  • 4 large egg
  • 8 cups salad greens mixed
  • 1 cup cherry tomato halved
  • ½ cup black olives such as Niçoise or Kalamata
  • ¼ cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 5-7 ounces tuna drained, packed in olive oil
  • ¼ cup capers optional
  • 14 ounces artichoke hearts 1 can, drained and quartered

For the Dressing:

  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the baby potatoes and cook until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the potatoes to a bowl.
  2. In the same pot, blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process, then drain and set aside.
  3. Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit for 9 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool, then peel and halve.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  5. On a large platter or individual plates, arrange the mixed salad greens. Arrange the potatoes, green beans, cherry tomatoes, black olives, red onion, tuna, and artichoke hearts in sections over the greens.
  6. Add the halved eggs and sprinkle with capers if using. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine just before serving.

Notes

  • Cook the potatoes, green beans, and eggs ahead of time to save time when assembling the salad.
  • Keep the dressing separate until just before serving to keep the salad fresh.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
