Niçoise salad is a traditional French salad from the city of Nice that’s perfect for your next summer dinner party. It starts with a large platter of leafy greens and gets topped with boiled eggs, flaked tuna, potatoes, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and a drizzle of lemon vinaigrette.
After ordering plenty of Niçoise salads (Salade Niçoise in French) while traveling through France, I like to think of this as a fresher, French Riviera version of America’s beloved cobb salad. But instead of bacon, avocado, and cheese, you’ll swap in ingredients that highlight the Mediterranean coast. Think light seafood, briny olives, crisp cucumbers, and green beans — a palette that touches everything I love about healthy and fresh Mediterranean food.
