Instructions

Combine ingredients for the garlic dressing. Set aside.
Place the eggs in boiling water for 7-10 minutes. Cool in ice water for easier peeling.
Remove the tough, lower part of the asparagus and cut spears in half lengthwise.
Brush the tuna with oil and fry or grill for 2-3 minutes on each side along with the asparagus, or until tuna is cooked to your desired temperature. Season with salt and pepper generously.
Add leafy greens, peeled eggs cut in halve, tomatoes, and onion to a plate.
Slice the tuna and distribute evenly over the salad. Pour over the dressing and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds.
