Zia Maria's Tuna, Egg and Tomato Salad

Ingredients

  • 5 oz tuna ((canned, albacore or any good quality, in water or olive oil))
  • 1 tomato ((organic))
  • 2 free range eggs ((hardboiled, cut into bite-sized pieces))
  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp red wine vinegar ((I use at least 6% acidity))
  • ½ tsp Kosher salt ((or sea salt))

Steps

  1. 1

    Empty the tuna into a bowl and add the hard boiled eggs.

  2. 2

    Cut up the tomatoes and add to the salad.

  3. 3

    Drizzle the olive oil and vinegar over the salad and add salt.

  4. 4

    Garnish with a sprig of basil, for a splash of color, if desired, and it's ready to serve with some crusty, Italian bread or rolls.
