Cooking the potatoes, eggs, & green beans in the same pot. Put

bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer potatoes for 12 mins,
then add eggs. Place a steamer basket/colander on top of
simmering water. Put green beans in steamer & cover with lid.
Steam beans for 5 mins until crisp-tender; while continuing to
cook potatoes until fork tender. Drain out water & put potatoes,
eggs, & green beans in a colander; rinse briefly under cold water.

side. Transfer tuna to cutting board & slice.
To assemble the salad, combine potatoes, green beans, tomatoes,
olives, & chives in a large bowl. Take the vinaigrette & give another

gently to coat; season with salt & pepper. Drizzle with remaining
vinaigrette & serve!
