Tuna Nicoise
My wife’s mum makes a mean niçoise salad. Great big chunks of fresh tuna (MSC approved), cold crisp cos lettuce, beans and eggs. What’s not to love? You could serve this as a main or bring it along to a BBQ or potluck as a side dish. Whatever the occasion you can’t really go wrong with a tuna niçoise. I make mine sans potatoes (to my wife’s disappointment) but it’s up to you. Chuck some in if you think you’ll miss them.
