Hot Nicoise Salad


I got this idea from Gwyneth Paltrow - she was featured in Food and Wine magazine a couple months ago because she just came out with a cookbook.  This hearty meal is very easy...take whatever vegetables you want (I used a red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, fingerling potatoes, haricots verts, asparagus and olives), add some chopped basil and toss it all in olive oil and S&P and put in a roasting pan.  Crack an egg into a ramekin and pour a little olive oil over it and season with S&P.  Coat the tuna with olive oil and S&P and nestle it into the veggies.  Cook in an oven which has been preheated to 400 degrees.  For the dressing you can combine some olive oil and lemon juice, or I just added a little balsamic vinegar to what juices and olive oil were already there.  Bon Appetit!
