  1. Cover 1 egg with cold water in a pot; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; cover; let sit 12 minutes. Run under cold water. Peel and chop egg.

  3. Add spinach to skillet by the handful, stirring after each. Increase heat to high. Saute 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; let cool. Stir in tuna, olives, lemon juice and chopped egg.
