Place potatoes in medium saucepan with enough water to cover by one inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, lower to a simmer and cook until potatoes are just tender, 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool, then cut into bite size pieces. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with all the remaining ingredients and gently toss. Refrigerate the salad several hours before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
