Quick & Easy Avocado Salad

Here's a salad I guest-posted on my sister's blog earlier this summer - for this and other salad ideas, check out her salad series!

This salad is pretty much an original creation.  It all came about because I was at work, thinking, what do I want for supper?  The answer was "a steak and eating an avocado with a spoon."  And then I remembered I'm a grownup, and probably shouldn't eat an avocado with a spoon.  SO I created this salad instead!

What you need:
2                ripe avocados, chopped
1/2             English cucumber, chopped
1                small roma tomato, diced
                  crumbled feta cheese (adjustable to personal preference)
                  balsamic vinegar (adjustable to personal preference)

Toss all your veggies and cheese into a bowl.  Pour balsamic vinegar over all of it, and stir!

Serve up with a steak done your favorite way! We still had a solid wall of snow blocking the BBQ when I made this, so I settled for pan-fried (is that what you call it?!) with some Montreal steak spice.

There you have it - a quick, easy, and grain free meal!

 Heaven!
