chicken potato salad

The gardens and farmers markets are bursting with all the fresh veggies of the season.  No better time to make this fresh chicken and potato salad.

3 poached chicken breast chopped or pull the meat off a roasted chicken
5-7 small boiled potatoes.  Peel if you want, it isn't necessary
2-3 chopped tomatoes
1# fresh green beans cooked or 1 can drained and rinsed
1 can black olives drained and rinsed
1/2 onion chopped
1-2 cloves garlic minced
1 lemon, juiced
1/2C olive oil salt and pepper to taste
Place all the vegetables in a pretty bowl, you can line everything up if you want to make it extra pretty
Mix the garlic, lemon juice, oil and seasonings pour over the salad it should be lightly covered, if it looks too dry add the juice of another lemon or  1-2T of vinegar.
If you have time this is even better if you chill it a couple of hours
