1
Prepare the Potatoes
Boil the potato in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool, peel, and cut into cubes.
2
Cook the Haricots Verts
Blanch the haricots verts in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking.
3
Prepare the Hard-Boiled Eggs
Place eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 9-12 minutes, then cool in ice water. Peel and quarter.
4
Assemble the Salad
In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cubed potato, haricots verts, quartered eggs, diced tomato, drained tuna, and olives.
5
Make the Dressing
Whisk together Dijon mustard, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste. Drizzle over the salad and toss gently to coat.
6
Serve
Transfer the salad to a serving platter and serve immediately. Anchovies can be added on top for those who desire them.
