Rice cakes are perhaps the perfect foundation for a snack; they are very neutral in flavor, have almost no calories, and give a great crunchy element. There are so many ways to dress up rice cakes to make them sweet or savory, so try these combinations the next time you get an afternoon craving.
Peanut Butter and Banana
This flavor duo has been around for a while and has recently had a comeback. The problem when you make a pb&b sandwich is that the bread tends to be too soft and makes the whole thing too sticky. But, use a rice cake instead and you can better appreciate the softness and stickiness of this pair.
Nutella
Unless you’re making it at home, Nutella is definitely not a healthy choice to make. However, it is so delicious and addictive! Instead of going in for spoonfuls you’ll later regret, spread it on some rice cakes, top with strawberries, and you have a slightly less guilty pleasure.
Cinnamon Toast
Not a rice cake, but a fun-nostalgic combination of butter, cinnamon, and sugar. You can always dial back on the butter and sugar, but you can feel good that cinnamon is an awesome metabolism booster, so snack away!
