Add the green beans to the potatoes during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Once fully cooked, drain the potatoes and green beans and let them cool aside.

Chop parsley roughly or finely, according to preference.

Slice red onion thinly.

In a bowl, combine the potatoes, green beans, parsley, red onion, calamar olives, and tuna packed in olive oil.

Add a third of a cup of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt, red wine vinegar, and oregano to the bowl.

Mix everything thoroughly, breaking up the potatoes and tuna with a fork.

Add cherry tomatoes to the mixture and drizzle with more olive oil.

Toss everything together well.
