Avocado romaine salad

Romaine or red leaf lettuce
1/2 avocado diced
1 to 2 ratio of olive oil & red wine vinegar (if you don't like the vinegar taste to be prominent flip the ratio)
Garlic
Dijon mustard
Onion finely diced
Chopped fresh basil
Salt & pepper

(Original recipe called for shallot instead of onion and an anchovies ...but I didn't have them.  The basil was my addition).  

Dice onion & garlic, smash in a mortar & pestle with a splash of oil and let sit for 10 minutes.  Mix with other ingredients & toss with lettuce & avocado.  Soooo simple & soooo yummy!
