I love avocados and quinoa so I decided to create a quinoa stuffed avocados recipe with my own personal touch and Mexican flavors. For this recipe I am using Avocados from Mexico, a brand that I admire because they are helping the Produce For Kids campaign at Publix raising funds to fight against hunger in our Central Florida community.

Did you know that 1 in 7 Americans struggle with hunger. This should not be happening in a country that has so much wealth.

That is why I am joining efforts with these organizations and Feeding America® food banks to help raise awareness and I want to invite you join our team.

And if you buy Avocados from Mexico Mexican Hass Avocados make my delicious recipe for Quinoa Stuffed Avocados. This recipe is ready in less than 20 minutes and it is a good nutritious option for lunch or dinner. Having easy dishes like the quinoa stuffed avocados is a smart option too.

Avocados have fiber and contain naturally good fats

Avocados have fiber and contain naturally good fats

Avocados have fiber and contain naturally good fats and are a great substitute for foods high in bad saturated fats. Mexico is the only place in the world where avocado trees naturally bloom four times a year. Producing a year-round bounty of irresistibly rich and creamy avocados. This fruit has unsurpassed quality and a distinctly delicious flavor that is always in season.

You really can’t go wrong with avocado. Combining them with Quinoa surely is a wonderful variation and it still hits the health target!
