In a saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar, honey, tamari\/soy sauce, garlic, thyme, oregano, and chili flakes. Set over medium heat.

Arrange the asparagus around the salmon, toss with 1 T. of oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your liking. During the last minute, switch the oven to broil and broil until lightly caramelized. Toss the salmon with the remaining balsamic sauce. Meanwhile, combine the avocado with 1 T. of oil, lemon juice, herbs, nuts\/seeds, and feta in a bowl. Season with salt. Spoon the asparagus and salmon over the bowls of rice. Top with lots of the avocado\/feta salad mix.
