Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking. Leave the smaller ones whole.
Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 12-15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and set aside.
While the potatoes are cooking, thinly slice the red onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sautΓ© for 30 seconds, taking care not to let it burn.
Stir in the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the spinach and onions. Toss gently to combine.
Pour the vinaigrette over the potato mixture and toss again until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy!
