Ingredients

  • For the dressing: ½ teaspoon sea salt Freshly ground black pepper to taste ½ Tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 Tablespoons champagne or white wine vinegar ⅓ cup unrefined, cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • ½ Tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tablespoons champagne or white wine vinegar
  • ⅓ cup unrefined, cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces Southern Selects French Beans, trimmed
  • 2 Tablespoons kosher salt
  • 4-6 hard-boiled large eggs, peeled and halved lengthwise
  • 1-2 cans high-quality tuna, preferably packed in olive oil, drained and broken into pieces
  • 1 large Southern Selects avocado, cubed
  • ½ cup olives, preferably Niçoise
  • ¾ pound cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 radishes, trimmed and thinly sliced
  • Bibb lettuce leaves to line platter, if desired, or shredded as a bed for the lettuce
  • Whisk all the dressing ingredients together in a medium bowl or shake in a screw-top jar.
  • Assemble the salad by arranging ingredients in separate groups. I like to line the platter with lettuce either just under the tuna or the entire platter. Drizzle dressing over top of dish.
