In a small bowl add garlic,salt,pepper,olive oil,basil and lemon whisk together then set aside.
In a larger bowl add  mixed greens. add tomatoes( you may leave whole or slice in 1/2),onions, chopped heats of palm . before tossing cut the avocados. pour dressing over toss well serve right away. this is amazing as a side dish to any meal.
Tips: You may add some shaved parm or Romano cheese to this.
