    Stir into the marinade with mustard. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Wash the chives, shake dry and cut into pieces. Cut avocados in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Remove the flesh from the skin, cut into slices and sprinkle with lemon juice.

    Arrange coleslaw with bacon, avocados and chives on a plate. Drizzle mustard marinade over it.
