I thought today was the perfect day to share these tuna-stuffed eggs, which for me are a staple for lunches and pic-nics! They are such a classic dish in Italy, everyone knows how to make them or has their own version of it.


No fuss to prepare, perfect served on a bed of salad. If you are having friends around for a dinner, they also make splendid appetisers or as a part of a buffet/picky dinner. I usually love them on a Saturday lunch with some fresh bread, smoked salmon, and a green salad and tomatoes.
