1/2 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

Gather and prep all ingredients.

Boil the eggs for about 8-10 minutes. When cooled, peel and slice in half.
Wash and cut the asparagus into equal lengths. Fry the asparagus in a pan by itself.
Equally pour the olive oil on both sides of the fresh tuna and fry for 3-5 minutes on both sides. Season the tuna with salt and pepper, to taste.
On a plate, place the leafy greens, cherry tomatoes (cut in half), onion, and eggs.
