Quick, tasty, and super easy POTATO, TUNA, AND PEPPER SALAD, the recipe for a simple, tasty, and colorful summer salad. In summer, we like to eat fresh and quick things, salads are the quintessential summer dish enjoyed by many. I also love these dishes, just today I prepared this beautiful salad with potatoes, tuna, peppers, Tropea onion, olives, and parsley, so delicious and quite substantial! To prepare it, I only cooked the potatoes because it’s a salad with raw peppers; if you’ve never tried them in salads without cooking, you absolutely must try them! Raw bell pepper in salads is delicious! Crunchy, sweet, and juicy, it gives the dish freshness and color. You can cook the potatoes as you prefer, boil or steam them, the important thing is that they remain nice and crunchy even after cooking. If you overboil them, the salad becomes mushy. Follow me in the recipe for this beautiful and tasty salad with raw peppers, potatoes, and tuna; you’ll find it delicious!
