I followed the recipe exactly except I added a chopped apple to it. Great served on lettuce, even my toddler ate it!

Re: I buy rotissarie chicken whole, bone the meat and save the meat for chicken salad recipes. Saves a lot of time.

7 and 1/2 teaspoons of mustard sounds like a lot to me.  Is that accurate?

Not my recipe - but yes you would need to drain the pineapple also. Any time you are adding canned fruit of any kind, always drain unless you are specifically told not to do so.
