Quinoa Guacamole Chicken Wraps
"So, I got home from the gym one day and thought, I want to eat something healthy. Red quinoa ? Check. Then I thought, I want it to taste really good. Avocado, red onion, cherry tomato, olive oil? Check. I added a little bit of balsamic vinegar to the quinoa and then mixed it in with the guacamole, and the combination turned into this texture-rich, super flavorful, smooth paste that was so delicious I didn't want it to end. I thought, man, this would be great in a wrap! So I added in some lean white chicken breast and low carbohydrate wraps, and was hooked."
