To make the salad, arrange Bibb lettuce leaves on the bottom of a bowl.

Place the tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, eggs, and olives all around. In the center, place the tuna and top it with the anchovies.

To make the Dijon-mustard vinaigrette, mix together the mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper; slowly whisk in the oil. Drizzle four tablespoons of the vinaigrette over the salad.
