🧂 Ingredients (1 Serving — Optavia 5&1 Compliant)

LEAN:

• 7 oz pre-cooked tail-off shrimp (chopped)

GREEN:

• 3.17 oz cauliflower rice

• 2.10 oz diced cucumber

• 1.76 oz scallions

HEALTHY FAT:

• 1.5 oz avocado (chopped)

• 1 tbsp sesame seeds

CONDIMENTS:

• 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

• 1 tsp sriracha (optional drizzle)

🥣 Directions: How to Make the Healthy Lean & Green Shrimp Sushi Stack

1. Chop shrimp, cucumber, scallions, and avocado.

2. In a bowl, mix cauliflower rice with soy sauce.

3. Layer in a cup or bowl: cauliflower rice, cucumber, avocado, shrimp.

4. Drizzle with sriracha and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

5. Eat immediately or store in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Optional: To make it pretty, use a 1-cup measuring cup to form your “stack.” Flip it onto a plate, drizzle with sriracha, and sprinkle with sesame seeds for that sushi-bar look.

🧊 Meal Prep Tip

Pack everything in separate containers for easy on-the-go assembly. The Healthy Lean & Green Shrimp Sushi Stack is perfect for a beach weekend or work-week lunches! Just keep the avocado separate until ready to eat to avoid browning.

💡 Alternative Option (Original Version)

If you’re not counting carbs or following a plan, substitute ½ cup cooked brown or white rice for the cauliflower rice.

This recipe was inspired by the original Spicy California Shrimp Stack from Skinnytaste.
