We took all of our favorite elements of the classic Nicoise salad—tuna, hard boiled eggs, olives and fresh veggies—and remixed them into a hearty dinner sandwich.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Put the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover the pan, remove from the heat and set aside, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the eggs and run under cold water to cool, then peel and slice.
  2. Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the tuna and stir, breaking it up, until combined. Spread some mayonnaise on the top baguette pieces and some tapenade on the bottom pieces.
  3. Divide the tuna among the bottom baguette pieces and then layer the hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, cucumber, radishes and lettuce on top; add the top baguette pieces. Serve the sandwiches with potato chips and pickled green beans.
