Great Version of Nicoise Salad

What a great idea to come up with a chopped version of the classic Nicoise Salad typically made with fresh tuna steak. Be sure to cook your green beans and potatoes to al dente - you don't want them to be cooked all the way through. The salad dressing with the lemon was tangy and refreshing and a nice pairing with the tuna. This one is a keeper and is now one of my new favorites.
Ellie does it again!

This recipe is delicious. Fresh, colorful, and tasty. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed it. I made it as a meal for dinner with a slice of toasted wheat french bread on the side. My boyfriend is usually pretty opposed to "healthy" meals... but he cleaned his plate and went back for more. I've made several of Ellie's recipes and LOVED them all. She definitely knows how to skip the bad and keep/enhance all the good!
Refreshing and Filling

My husband and I LOVED this recipe. It was healthy, flavorful, but not overpowering, different and absolutely delicious. We didn't feel guilty sneaking back for seconds! It'll be a regular for sure.

This has become one of my family's favorite lunch salads. The lemon juice adds such freshness. I also add a bit of garlic to the dressing.
Not into Nicoise

The family tried this with another salad for "Salad Night", but really didn't care for it. Guess we aren't Nicoise fans.
Cheap AND keeps.

The lemon juice in the dressing keeps this salad fresh for days, which is a plus on top of the ingredients being cheap. I tried a modification of half albacore tuna and half canned wild salmon and was pleased with the result, though it got overly fishy after a couple days. I also left out the olives in my version.
Wonderful

my mother & I saw this recipe on 9/2/06 I decided that I would make it and I am so glad that I did. My entire family enjoyed it and I have since made it again. This is a great easy and beautiful salad.

I loved this salad and being on weight watchers, this was a recipe that was very low in points but long on flavor. I also used the leftovers in a whole wheat pita the next day and it was awesome. Mixed it with some Light Sun Dried Tomato and Basil dressing for another side dish and it was like a new dish.
Excellent Healthy Dish

To 'bland & sodium infested'

Have you ever tried rinsing the tuna. It rinses away a lot of the sodium. Recipes are for ideas. We are supposed to think for ourselves and make appropriate changes.
I love this salad!

I LOVE making and eating this salad! It's a meal, not just a side dish (and you feel good after you eat it!)

Why is it that tv execs think that nutritionists can cook? Chefs and cooks cook. Nutritionists tell you what they think you should eat (though if you've ever been to a conference of nutritionists, most of them are overweight which is a bit ironic). Anyway, this salad is bland and it's full of sodium. Don't you think you should at least be using low-sodium tuna, Ms. Dietician?
Very good

This dish was very tasty and easy to make; a perfect, light summer time dinner. I added chopped garlic to the dressing; the mustard adds a great zing, too. My husband loved it!

The salad isn't bad at all, but it has too much sustenance to be a side dish and not enough pizzazz to be a main course. I added some anchovies (high in fat and sodium) a little seasoning to add some kick...maybe there is a healthy alternative to my additions?
Delicious and Easy

I made this recipe with left over grilled salmon in place of the tuna and it was a big hit! Perfect lunch!
