Rice Cakes with Avocado and Turkey Slices

Ingredients

• Rice cakes 3 cakes
• Avocado 1/2 medium
• Turkey slices, deli 3 oz

Method

1. Prepare the avocado. Slice the avocado in half lengthwise. Remove the pit by gently tapping it with a knife and twisting it out. Use a spoon to scoop the avocado flesh out of the skin and place it in a bowl.
   Tip: Make sure the avocado is ripe — it should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
2. Mash the avocado. Use a fork to mash the avocado until it is smooth but still slightly chunky. This will make it easier to spread on the rice cakes.
   Tip: Add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice if desired to enhance flavor and prevent browning.
3. Prepare rice cakes. Place the three rice cakes on a clean plate, arranging them so they are easy to top.
   Tip: Use plain rice cakes for a neutral base, but you can try lightly salted ones if preferred.
4. Spread avocado on rice cakes. Evenly spread the mashed avocado over the surface of each rice cake using a butter knife or spoon.
   Tip: Spread gently so the rice cakes don’t break.
5. Add turkey slices. Place turkey slices on top of the avocado-covered rice cakes. You can fold or layer the turkey to cover the surface nicely.
   Tip: If the turkey slices are large, cut them to fit the rice cakes better.

Pro tips

• Use ripe avocado for best creamy texture and flavor.
• Add a sprinkle of black pepper or chili flakes on top for a little extra kick.
