Ingredients

  1. 2 large eggs
  2. 1 cup green beans, trimmed
  3. Kosher salt
  4. 2 5-ounce cans tuna packed in olive oil (preferably Italian)
  5. 1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
  6. 1 small green bell pepper, diced
  7. 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  8. 1/4 cup chopped pitted green olives
  9. Juice of 1 lemon
  10. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  11. Freshly ground pepper
  12. 4 everything bagels, split
  13. 1 large tomato, cut into 4 slices

Instructions

  1. Put the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice water to cool, then peel and slice.
  2. Meanwhile, put the green beans in a microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water and a pinch of salt. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Cut the green beans in half.
  3. Drain the tuna and toss with the green beans, scallions, bell pepper, parsley, olives, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
  4. Lightly toast the bagels. Layer the tomato slices, tuna salad and hard-boiled eggs on the bagel bottoms. Drizzle with olive oil and close with the bagel tops.

Excellent sandwich, holds up well for picnics.  Best if closed tight and left for about one hour to let the flavors develop.  I also used tapenade directly on bread.  Used ciabatta rolls instead of bagels, found bagels too messy.
