Chickpea, Fennel, and Olive Chicken Salad

I think this would be DELISH packed in a container for a picnic along with a baguette (with some herbed Alouette for spreading), and some red grapes:

1 T. lemon juice
1 T. EVOO
1/2 t. freshly ground pepper
1/4 t. sea salt
2 & 1/4 cups finely chopped fennel bulb (1 med.)
1 & 1/2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken breast (or thighs*)
1/2 cup chopped radishes (6)
1/3 cup (or more*) chopped pitted kalamata olives
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
2 navel oranges, peeled and chopped (I would use Mandarins*)
1 (16 oz.) can of reduced sodium* chickpeas, rinsed and drained

Whisk together first 4 ingredients in a med. bowl. Add fennel and remaining ingredients; toss well, and chill.

"Don't get so busy that you forget to be content".

I declare this to be a GREAT day for all of you!!

Love,

MM
