homemade Salade Nicoise

After the frightening salad experience of last Monday and then reading this similar posting, we were compelled to have a more fulfilling customized lunch. No better way to do that than to make it yourself! This super easy version of a nicoise salad has canned white tuna, olives, hard boiled eggs, some safe grape tomatoes and not so typically, a bed of green lettuce. For transporting from home to office, the heavier ingredients go in one container, the leaf lettuce in another and the dressing in yet another. It can be a bit of a pain but well worth the resulting fresh, hand tossed salad .
