This recipe is one of my favorite salad recipes! It's a really simple and easy dish to make that both my husband and I find simply delicious and full of flavor. I 'hearty' it up for my husband by adding more bacon to his, and it's definitely better when the tuna is cooked to a proper sear.

This salad got out of hand in a hurry. I hard-cooked the eggs, and used romaine instead of spinach, just because I like it better. And then I started garnishing. I added tomatoes, black olives, cucumbers, and bell pepper strips. Delicious salad!
