Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 °. Snap off and discard tough ends of asparagus; remove scales with a vegetable peeler, if desired.

- Whisk together balsamic vinegar, garlic, and remaining 7 Tbsp. olive oil, 1 Tbsp. basil, and 1/4 tsp. salt.
- Toss together tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar mixture.
- Arrange lettuce on individual serving plates. Top with tomato mixture and asparagus. Add avocado just before serving. Drizzle with remaining balsamic vinegar mixture.
- Note: To make ahead, toss together tomatoes, bell pepper, and onion without dressing. Store these ready-to-use ingredients in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to five hours. The dressing and asparagus can also be made up to eight hours before serving.
