Salade niçoise is a composed salad that happens to be perfect for prep: everything is good cold and nothing wilts. The potatoes and eggs cook in the same pot, the green beans blanch for two minutes, and a sharp mustard vinaigrette ties it together. White beans make each box properly filling.

Ingredients

For 4 boxes.

Potatoes, eggs and beans

  • 1 lb baby red potatoes, halved
  • 8 large eggs
  • 8 oz green beans, trimmed

Boxes

  • 4 (5 oz) cans tuna in water, drained
  • 1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup black olives

Vinaigrette

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Method

  1. Cover the potatoes with cold water, bring to a boil and cook 15 minutes until tender.

  2. After the potatoes have cooked 7 minutes, lower the eggs into the same pot for 8 minutes. Add the green beans for the last 2 minutes.

Tips

  • Cook the eggs 8 minutes for set but tender yolks that hold up for days.
  • Toss the potatoes with a spoon of dressing while they're warm; they soak it up.
