Roasted Red Pepper & Turkey Bacon Rice Cakes

Since I’m starting my clean bulk phase, I’ve been trying to come up with really delicious, healthy snacking alternatives that I can grab whenever I’m hungry throughout the day, and this one just sorta... happened. I was trying to make a sweet rice cake, but then I saw turkey bacon in my fridge. So, I threw caution to the wind and came up with this savoury rice cake instead! And boy, am I glad I did. This was SO good, and that little kick of spice is my EVERYTHING! (Recipe & macros available below.)

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 rice cakes of choice

• 1/4 c. plain Greek yogurt

• 1/2 c. raw kale, chopped

• 4 slices reduced fat turkey bacon

• 2 oz. roasted red peppers, sliced

• 1/4 tbsp olive oil

• 1 clove garlic, chopped

• a squeeze of lemon juice

• red chilli flakes

• other spices & seasonings

DIRECTIONS:

• fry up the turkey bacon to your preferred level of “crispiness”

• mix your sliced roasted red peppers with 1/4 tbsp of olive oil and chopped garlic clove (season as necessary)

• spread your plain Greek yogurt on top of each rice cake

• season the Greek yogurt as you like (I like a bit of salt, black peppercorns, garlic powder & a few dried chilli flakes)

• top your rice cakes with chopped kale, crispy turkey bacon and roasted red pepper mixture

• squeeze a bit of lemon overtop and some more chilli flakes for an added kick & enjoy!

MACROS: (for two rice cakes)
