BACKI have been wanting to make a Salad Nicoise for a couple months. However, not everyone in the house eats anchovy and tuna. So I made a version of Salmon Nichoise. What's nice about it is people can pick and choose what they want to eat. And if you're wanting to not eat too many potatoes, you can keep your carbs down. The potatoes were baked in olive oil, tarragon and salt. The salmon was baked after being brushed with a Dijon vinaigrette. I sprinkled a little dill over the salmon just before serving it. You can choose to have fewer or more vegetables. And you can choose to have canned tuna or salmon. It's a great meal to prep ahead of time. I chose to not serve it with a dressing. And let people pick and choose from a few that I knew would work with the spices I used. That's the other thing. You have to be careful about getting too many calories in the dressings. I did not even need to put dressing on mine. If you soft boil your egg instead of hard, the egg yolk will make a nice sauce with whatever seasonings and dressings you do have. You can't tell, but it is served on a bed of mixed salad greens.
