Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potato and cook, tossing, until browned and beginning to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the sliced pepper and onion and season with salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the potato is cooked through and the pepper and onion are browned but not completely soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a bowl and season with salt. Reduce the heat to low and give the pan a moment to cool. Pour in the eggs and cook, stirring constantly, until just set, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Toss the arugula with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and the vinegar in a bowl. Season with salt. Fill each roll with the scrambled eggs, cheese, if desired, and the arugula.

THE ORIGINAL POTATO SALAD
This recipe is right off the Hellman's mayonnaise jar. To me, it's so good it rivals my mother in law's potato salad, which I think is the best there is. It's a plain and simple potato salad, but it's delicious! Add pimentos, olives, or green peppers depending on what you like in your potato salad.

TUNA CRUNCH SANDWICHES
A tuna salad and potato chip sandwich may not be quite as classic a pairing as peanut butter and jelly, but it is, anecdotally, many middle-schoolers' first forays into experimenting with flavors and textures, and no less delicious. Beyond crunch, chips also add stability to the sandwich, holding the tuna salad in place as you eat. There's no wrong way to make the sandwich, but seasoning tuna salad with red onion and celery, plenty of olive oil and little lemon juice, and using kettle-style salt and vinegar potato chips are especially alluring. There's the word "optional" next to the most optional ingredients, but consider every ingredient other than the tuna, bread and chips to be adaptable according to your own taste (or how your mom made it).

Steps:
- Open the can of tuna, leaving the lid in place after opening it. Invert the whole can over the sink and press the lid into the tuna firmly to squeeze out as much excess water or oil as you can. (Be careful not to cut your fingers on any sharp edges). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.
- Wash your hands well, then grab the boiled egg and squeeze it through your fingers into the bowl with the tuna. Add the celery, olive oil, onion, herbs (if using), mayonnaise, relish (if using) and lemon juice. Using a fork, gently fold together all the ingredients, trying to leave the tuna in relatively large chunks. Grab a few chips and, using your hands, crumble them into the bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and fold again to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste - more salt, pepper and lemon juice if it tastes bland, and more olive oil or mayonnaise if it tastes dry.
- When ready for lunch, spread each slice of bread generously with mayonnaise. Place lettuce on each bottom slice of bread, then top each with half of the tuna salad mixture. Add a generous handful of potato chips on top of each (more than seems reasonable), then close the sandwiches. Press down firmly so the chips break and embed themselves into the tuna salad and the bread. Cut into triangles and serve with extra chips on the side.
Tips:
- Use the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, are best for potato salad sandwiches. They hold their shape well when cooked and won't get too mushy.
- Cook the potatoes properly: Boil the potatoes until they are just tender. If you overcook them, they will become too soft and fall apart.
- Let the potatoes cool completely: This will help prevent the potato salad from becoming watery.
- Use a good mayonnaise: A good quality mayonnaise will make a big difference in the flavor of your potato salad sandwich. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: You can add all sorts of different mix-ins to your potato salad, such as chopped celery, onion, hard-boiled eggs, and pickles. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
- Season to taste: Be sure to season your potato salad to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a bit of mustard or vinegar for a little extra tang.
Conclusion:
Potato salad sandwiches are a classic summer picnic food. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious potato salad sandwich that will be the hit of your next party.
