How to Make It
  1. To make the dressing, combine the oil, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, mustard, salt, stevia liquid, and pepper to taste in a small bowl.
  2. Holding half an avocado in your palm, insert the tip of a tablespoon into the narrow end of the fruit and up between the fruit and skin so that the flesh is removed in one piece. Put it on a board and repeat with the other halves, then cut diagonally into 5-mm/¼-inch slices. Halve the onion slices.
  3. Arrange the avocado slices and cherry tomatoes on a serving platter and scatter over the onion pieces. Spoon over the dressing and scatter the basil leaves on top. Serve immediately.
