This is a takeoff on salad Niçoise, which contains many of the same ingredients, including tuna, hard-cooked eggs, tomatoes, and olives. The salad is enjoyed throughout France, but especially in Nice, its namesake city, which is located on the French Riviera. Our version transforms the salad into a sandwich and takes less than 10 minutes to make. Tangy, briny, satisfying, and with lots of crunch, it may be difficult in choosing which take you like best.
