Ingredients
Method
In saucepan of boiling water, blanch beans until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.Meanwhile, place spinach in large bowl; set aside.
In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté onion until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add mushrooms, garlic, salt, pepper and thyme; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and no liquid remians, about 7 minutes.
Add beans, chickpeas and vinegar to skillet; cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Add to spinach, tossing to wilt and coat.
Arrange salad on plates. Top with eggs; sprinkle with Asiago.
Tip from The Test Kitchen: Sweet onions aren't as pungent as cooking white or red onions, which makes them a great choice for delicately falvoured salads. There are many varieties; Vidalia and Walla Walla are common ones.
