Ingredients

2 pounds red potatoes
3 each italian plum (roma) tomatoes
1/2 medium red onion
16 ounces chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1/4 pound spinach

Directions

Bring about 4-6 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan (more is better, but leave room for the potatoes), and add the scrubbed bite-sized potato pieces.

Bring back to a boil, and boil for 4-5 minutes.

Do not overcook! You don't want them to be hard, but you don't want them to be mush, either.

Drain the potatoes, and rinse well under cold water (or cover with cold water, then drain and rinse).

Drain the garbanzo beans and rinse them thoroughly under cold water.

Cut the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces, but smaller than the potato pieces.

Chop up the spinach (if you're using it). Mix everything together, including the dressing, in a bowl that is big enough to stir it without dumping bits over the side.

Cover the bowl, and chill for at least 4 hours, tossing it once or twice to make sure the dressing continues to coat things.

Warm Chévre and Apple Rings with Manitoba Hemp Seed Oil Vinaigrette

A truly amazing combination of flavors. The dressing is divine, the warm and tart goat cheese combined with the sweetness of apple ring is truly out of this world.
