[Sincerely-Food-Chef]

Ingredients

• 2 avocados
• 2 (6 oz) cans chunk light tuna in water
• 1 English cucumber
• 2 cups jasmine rice
• 1 red bell pepper
• chili-garlic sauce
• mayonnaise
• rice vinegar
• salt
• sesame seeds
• soy sauce
• toasted sesame oil

Instructions

1. Using a strainer or colander, rinse the rice under cold, running water, then drain and transfer to a small saucepan. Add water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
   • 2 cups jasmine rice
   • 4 cup water
2. Wash and dry the fresh produce.
   • 1 English cucumber
   • 2 avocados
   • 1 red bell pepper
3. Once the liquid comes to a boil, stir the mixture, cover the saucepan, and reduce the heat to low. Cook the rice until the liquid is fully absorbed, 15-18 minutes. Once done, remove the rice from the heat and let it stand, still covered, for 5 minutes.
4. Trim and discard the ends of the cucumber; halve the cucumber lengthwise, then cut in ½-inch cubes. Add to a bowl.
5. Cut the bell pepper into quarters lengthwise; remove and discard the seeds and white membranes. Small dice the pepper. Add to a bowl with the cucumber.
6. Season vegetables with soy sauce and sesame oil. Add sesame seeds and stir to combine.
   • 2 tsp soy sauce
   • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
   • 2 tsp sesame seeds
7. Halve and pit the avocado; cube the flesh into ½-inch cubes while still in the skin. Scoop out the flesh and set aside.
8. Uncover the rice and fluff with a fork. Add vinegar and salt and stir to combine. Spread out rice on a baking sheet to cool, about 5-10 minutes.
   • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
   • ½ tsp salt
9. Drain tuna, add to a new bowl, and flake with a fork. Add chili-garlic sauce and mayo and stir to combine.
   • 2 (6 oz) cans chunk light tuna in water
   • 2 tsp chili-garlic sauce
   • ¼ cup mayonnaise
10. Using a 1 cup measure, fill up to the ⅓ mark with veggies and avocado, then to the ½ way mark with tuna, and finally the rest of the way with rice.
11. Once the stack is complete, flip the measuring cup onto a large plate. Tap on the bottom of the cup to loosen the stack. If the rice is sticking, run a knife around the edge before flipping. Serve immediately, 2-stacks per person. Enjoy!
