TUNA****Tuna, Roasted Pepper and Avocado Salad

By Unblond1

I liked this very much. Dan didn't care for it but I used a lettuce blend that had (quite large) herbs in it and that threw him off. He did eat the tuna and the avocado.
All in all, you should just cut this in half and use a small can of tuna and just make it for yourself.

Ingredients

• 6 oz. tuna steak, in one piece
• 1 large red or yellow pepper - okay but not really necessary
• 4 cups loosely packed salad greens (with some frisee, if possible)
• 1 ripe avocado, cut in chunks
• 1/4 cup toasted cumin citrus dressing (or preserved lemon dressing)
• 12 nicoise olives, halved
