The mix of potatoes, green beans, eggs, tomatoes, and tuna gives it enough texture and flavor to serve as a light lunch or an easy family dinner.

Ingredients for 4 servings

• 400 g potatoes
• 200 g green beans
• 3 eggs
• 2 tomatoes
• 160 g canned tuna, drained
• 60 g black olives
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• Salt and black pepper

How to make it

Start by boiling the potatoes in salted water until tender. Let them cool slightly, peel them if needed, and cut them into bite-size pieces. Cook the green beans in boiling water for a few minutes until just tender, then drain and cool them to keep their color.

At the same time, hard-boil the eggs for about 10 minutes. Once cooled, peel and quarter them. Slice the tomatoes and drain the tuna well so the salad stays balanced and not watery.

Place the potatoes, green beans, tomatoes, olives, and tuna in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a little black pepper. Toss gently so the potatoes keep their shape.

Finish by arranging the egg quarters on top. Serve the salad right away or chill it for 20 minutes for an even fresher result.

Conclusion

This tuna salad is an easy recipe to keep on repeat when you want something colorful, practical, and satisfying. It also works well for meal prep because the ingredients hold up nicely in the fridge for a few hours.
