As part of cookbook reviews that I do, I was tapped to review a Sandra Lee cookbook. Now, I'm not normally a big Sandra Lee fan, but I did find a few recipes in the book that were tasty and fast and semi-nutritious. My favorite has to be the Niçoise on a Roll. It's got canned tuna, nicoise olives, capers, and hard-boiled eggs, and when served ice cold on a potato roll with plenty of lettuce, tomato, and onions, it's heavenly on a hot summer afternoon.

tablespoons mayonnaise
1
tablespoon fines herbes
Sea salt
and freshly ground black pepper
2
round potato buns
2
Bibb lettuce leaves
6
slices Roma tomato
¼
red onion, peeled and thinly sliced into rings
Combine tuna, eggs, capers, olives, mayonnaise, fines herbes, and salt and
pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Mix

on the bottom half of each bun. Divide
tuna mixture between the two sandwiches.
Top each with three tomato slices and red onion rings.
