Avocado-Turkey Rice Bowl - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups water
1 cup uncooked basmati rice, rinsed
2 cups cottage cheese
2 medium avocados, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup deli turkey meat, torn into bite-sized pieces
4 teaspoons lemon juice
4 teaspoons soy sauce, or to taste
8 multigrain crackers
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 18 minutes. Remove saucepan from the heat and let sit, covered, at least 10 minutes.
Arrange 1/2 cup cooked rice, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 an avocado, and 1/4 cup turkey side-by-side in an individual bowl. Repeat with remaining ingredients to create 4 bowls. Drizzle lemon juice and soy sauce over each bowl and garnish with 2 crackers. Season with salt and pepper.
