In small bowl, mix vinegar, mustard, veg. oil, sugar, and parsley.

Whisk together vigorously until completely combined. Just before serving, add the avocado slices to the chicken and rice mixture. Pour on dressing and toss gently to combine thoroughly. Serve sprinkled with toasted nuts and cherry tomatoes.Judy Garnett/pjxg05a
