This Mediterranean salad is most definitely a main course! This is the [[salad]] that has everything. Just omit the [[tuna]] for a vegetarian version. It takes a bit of time to prepare, but can be made in advance and will store for a day so you could have it two days running to lessen the effort!

===Method===

{{RecipeMethod

===Variations===
Rather that canned [[tuna]], [[marinade]] a small fresh [[tuna]] steak for 30 minutes in [[dark soy sauce]], flip it once. Season with [[freshly ground black pepper]] and pan fry it in a little olive oil for 2 minutes a side, let it cool, then slice it thinly.
