Notes
Any kind of salad greens will work. Other fresh vegetables like zucchini and radishes are great options.
Pick your favourite salad dressing, any flavour will work.
Any canned tuna is fine, packed in oil or water, solid or flaked. If you are using solid, you will have to flake it before topping the salad greens.
Olives can be whole or sliced. You can also use capers.
Garnish is optional, but additional olives, cheese, black pepper, croutons and fresh herbs are great options.
Store leftover is a sealed container in the fridge. It will last about a day, but the salad greens will wilt.
