1. Put the eggs in a sauce pan with enough cold water to cover. Boil for 15 minutes and remove from heat. Drain the eggs and allow to cool under cold running water. Remove the shells and separate the white from the yolk. Dice the white for the tomatoes and break up the yolk for garnish.
2. Season the tomatoes with salt & pepper (optional). Combine the sautéed onions, garlic, and whites from the hardboiled egg. Fill each tomato with mixture.
3. Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese with olive oil and top tomatoes with mixture.
4. Bake tomatoes in oven at 350° F for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from oven.
5. For lemon vinaigrette, combine all ingredients in food processor until emulsified.
6. Arrange 1 half stuffed tomato on plate with 3 ounces of asparagus. Drizzle lemon vinaigrette over asparagus and garnish with egg yolks.
