Ingredients

  • 4 small red potatoes (about 1/2 pound)
  • 1/3 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 12-ounce can light tuna packed in water, drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped pitted Greek or Spanish olives
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 2 large tomatoes, seeded and diced (about 2 cups)
  • 5 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

Boil water in a large pot with a fitted steamer basket. Put the potatoes in the steamer, cover and steam for 15 minutes. Add the green beans and steam for 6 minutes more. Put the cooked potatoes and beans in a dish and set in the refrigerator to cool, or plunge into a bowl of ice water to cool quickly.

Put tuna, olives, onion, tomato and lettuce in a large bowl. Dice the potatoes and green beans, add them to the bowl and toss.

In a small bowl whisk together the oil, lemon juice, mustard, salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad, toss well and serve.

    This is a very good base recipe but you can adjust it to fit your needs or whatever you have in your pantry. I used small brown potatoes instead of red ones which sufficed and no salt canned cut green beans. I also used stone ground mustard instead of Dijon. It was a quick meal that was light but hearty enough for an entree. I highly recommend this when you're short on time and would like to have salad as the main course for dinner.

    I love this recipe - I usually make the dressing ahead and toss the warm potatoes in a little bit before cooling them down. Summery and delicious!

    This was okay, but not great. I had to add a lot of salt and more lemon juice because it was lacking in flavor. If I make it again I might add some toasted nuts or something.
