Rotisserie Chicken Salad with Grapes and Apple

This completes my series on Summer Picnic.  Remember the Potato Salad, Sour Cherry & Pecan Cookies with Chocolate Chips and Watermelon Lemonade?  While those three are quite delicious together, you probably need some protein - and that's where this chicken salad comes in.
