Cucumber Cream Cheese Rice Cake
This sweet and savory rice cake was inspired by one of my favorite sandwiches my mom made for me growing up: Cucumber Cream Cheese Sandwiches. If you’ve never tried this irresistible combination of ingredients, you must! It’s the best! And the seasoned salt adds an extra touch of delish.
Turkey Sandwich Rice Cake
Who doesn’t like a delicious, loaded turkey sandwich? Topping a rice cake with all of those same ingredients (minus the bread) allows you to enjoy the favorite sandwich minus wheat and tons of carbs.
Honey Pear Rice Cake
I had to throw in one sweet version! Pears, honey and cinnamon make the perfect sweet combination, especially when sitting on top of a crunchy rice cake!
Fried Egg Avocado Rice Cake
This is probably my favorite rice cake creation of the bunch. Runny egg yolks, sriracha and avocados are three of my favorite things. Perfection!
Are rice cakes gluten-free?
Most rice cakes are gluten-free, making them the perfect snack for people avoiding wheat (read labels to be sure). In fact, all of the ingredients in all four of these rice cakes are gluten-free!
What are some other gluten-free snacks?
A few other favorite gluten-free snacks are these Salty Toasted Coconut Chips, this Healthy Nutty Granola and Healthy Snack Bites (omit the wheat germ).
