Ingredients

2 cups 1/2-inch pieces peeled white potatoes (about 1 pound)
1 cup 1/2-inch pieces peeled carrots
1 cup 1/2-inch pieces fennel bulb (about 1 medium), fronds reserved
1 15- to 16-ounce can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), rinsed, drained
1/2 cup 1/2-inch pieces red onion
1 7-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cook potatoes in medium pot of boiling salted water 4 minutes. Add carrots and cook until all vegetables are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes longer. Drain. Rinse vegetables under cold water. Drain well. Combine potatoes, carrots, fennel bulb, garbanzo beans, red onion, roasted peppers and parsley in large bowl.

    Step 2

    Whisk vinegar, oil and garlic in small bowl. Add to salad; toss to coat.

    Step 3

    Cut eggs in half lengthwise. Separate yolks from whites (reserve 2 yolks for another use). Chop egg whites; mix into salad. Season with salt and pepper. Mound salad in serving bowl. Crumble remaining 2 yolks over salad. Garnish with fennel fronds. Serve at room temperature or cover and chill up to 4 hours.
