NOT-SO-PRO TIPS
Don’t forget that the majority of the fat and calories in this recipe come from fresh avocado, a healthy and nutritious source! It is also an extremely filling meal. If you do prefer to lighten it up, you can halve the avocado, rice or both and it will still taste delicious!
Imitation crab meat is used in most California roll’s and is an easy, inexpensive and safe alternative to lump crab. My supermarket has a few brands of it in a refrigerated section off of the produce aisle, along with smoked salmon and filets of fish. You can use fresh crab meat if you prefer, though!
I am still mastering the perfect brown rice (it’s harder than I would have thought!). Skinnytaste has some great tips, though, if you’re a rice novice like I am
