Roast potatoes for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.

Add the snow pea pods to the boiling water and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until tender-crisp.

Drain the snow peas in a strainer and immediately rinse with cold water to cool them down.

In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the roasted potato mixture, halved cherry tomatoes, remaining 6 tablespoons of olive oil, red-wine vinegar, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
