Prepare your ingredients.
Gather 2 rice cakes, 2 tablespoons (28 g) of low-fat cream cheese, and 3 ounces (85 g) of smoked turkey slices. Make sure the turkey slices are separated and ready to use.
Tip: If the cream cheese is too cold and hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften for easier spreading. -
Spread cream cheese on rice cakes.
Using a butter knife or small spatula, evenly spread about 1 tablespoon of low-fat cream cheese on each rice cake. Aim for a smooth, even layer covering the surface.
Tip: Apply gentle pressure to avoid breaking the rice cakes, as they can be fragile. -
Add smoked turkey slices.
Place the smoked turkey slices evenly over the cream cheese on each rice cake. You can fold or layer the slices to cover the surface nicely.
Tip: If the turkey slices are large, you can cut them into smaller pieces for easier eating. -
Serve and enjoy.
Your rice cakes with cream cheese and smoked turkey are ready to eat. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
