Rice Cake Toppings

Brown Rice Cakes are listed as one of the few snack items allowed in my diet. So it's a task to find ways to make them interesting. On any other day I'd rather suck on my own thumb than chew thru a brown rice cake but I've got no choice, so creativity must serve me well in this situation.

Here's a few ideas:

Homemade Hummus with 1 or some

1. pieces of roasted chicken
2. flaked salmon
3. clover sproats
4. shredded carrots
5. pinenuts

Avocados with 1 or some

1. black pepper
2. shredded turkey breast (try the kalua turkey!!!!)
3. carmelized onions (it's a hassle to cook them but oh so yummy!)
4. hamburger (must be organic but you can get it easy at Costco or A'ala Meats)
5. sproats/onions/carrots/lettuce
   

Hazelnut or Almond Butter

• Both butters are sugarfree so they are very concentrated flavors. A couple drops of stevia makes it a yummy treat.

That's simple enough. Brown rice cakes basically become your bread substitute. It helps to toast them (Thanks Kala!) and remember that the salt-free and lighty salted Lundberg's Brown Rice Cakes are the only flavors in that line that are diet safe. No Tamari or sugar flavors allowed.
