How to Prepare Vegan Niçoise Salad With Avocado

  1. Wash the potatoes (you can peel them if you want, but the most nutrients and fiber are in or right below the peel).
  2. Put them in a pot, cover with water and bring to a boil.
  3. Cook over medium heat until almost soft, then add the green beans and continue to cook until both potatoes and beans are tender but not over cooked (about 5 minutes).
  4. Meanwhile, chop the romaine, tomatoes and olives and transfer to a bowl.
  5. Drain the potatoes and beans, cut potatoes into bite-sized pieces and add both to the veggies.
  6. Top with tuna and chopped avocado.
  7. Mix together the remaining ingredients for dressing, pour over salad and gently combine.
  8. Taste, adjust seasonings to your liking and serve.
  9. Enjoy!

Notes
