Avocado-Feta Quinoa Salad

Avocado-Feta Quinoa Salad Goodness -- Core!!!

1/2 cup cooked quinoa, slightly warmed (I like to cook medium batches and freeze in half cup portions)
2.25 oz avocado, diced
1 oz fat free feta, crumbled
5-10 bitty heirloom tomatoes, halved (these are half the size of cherry tomatoes, or use cherry tomatoes and quarter them)
1 tsp aged balsamic vinegar
1 tsp unfiltered olive oil

Mix it all up. Heaven in a bowl. 6 points for flex folks and Core for the corebies!

Disclaimer:

I get asked by readers if I am being paid to push products. The simple answer is no. In fact, most of the products I write about are ones I have found and purchased during my trips to the grocery store or on the road. Occasionally, a company will send a sample my way and if I believe the product will serve a need for my readers and I would buy the product myself, then I will share it with you. Sometimes I will write to a company after reading about it, if I believe it will help us lead healthier lifestyles. But even then, if the product doesn't pass my scrutiny, it won't make the screen of Uncovering Food. You can trust that every product or recipe posted here has passed through my lips, and that I wouldn't blog about it if it wasn't worthy of you... my favorite readers.
