• Hard boiled eggs, chopped
• Pimiento stuffed olives, chopped
• Canned tuna, drained, flaked
• Bottled giardiniera mix, undrained. (Mild is best for this salad even though I love the hot mix)

Directions:

Put all the ingredients in a bowl, pour on the entire bottle of giardiniera mix and gently toss to mix.

If you do not like the vegetables listed above, do not like hard cooked eggs, or you'd rather have flaked crab or lobster in your salad - make the changes.

Taste, adjust seasonings if needed and either eat immediately or cover with plastic wrap and chill until needed.
