Spinach Salad with Goat Cheese and Dried Tomatoes

Cafe Koko used to serve something like this before it closed. I still have tomatoes from my garden that I dried last summer, and there are lots of tasty local goat cheeses to choose from.

Combine in proportions that please you:

Fresh spinach, stemmed, washed, and drained
Goat cheese, in small chunks
Dried tomatoes, softened and chopped (soften in hot water for a few minutes)
Red onion, diced OR chives, minced
Slivered almonds, lightly toasted

Serve with a vinaigrette--balsamic or red wine vinegar would be good.
