Rice cakes with shrimp and avocado

When naming the crackers, always seems to eat something tasteless. But with this dish you will change your mind. Get: 8 rice cakes, 8 shrimp, 1 avocado, 1 cucumber, 200 gr of spreadable cheese, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, chives to taste. Do so: start with prawns, the most laborious to prepare. Sauté them in a pan with a drizzle of oil for a few minutes, until they turn orange. Then clean them, removing the head, shell and intestines. Now switch to the avocado: after having peeled it and removed the stone, cut it into slices. Cut the cucumber into slices as well. Finely chop the chives. Now assemble the ingredients: on each biscuit, spread a layer of cheese, then the cucumber, the avocado slice, finally the shrimp. Sprinkle with the mince and serve. If you don't like the biscuits, use crackers.

Fans of salmon, kiwi and grapefruit

Salmon is a truly versatile fish that requires little processing to be consumed. Get: 200 g of smoked salmon, fresh goat cheese, chives, extra virgin olive oil, black pepper. Do this: spread the salmon slices on a sheet of baking paper. You will need to form a rectangle of 20 × 10 centimeters by overlapping them. Spread the surface with the goat cheese that you have previously seasoned with extra virgin olive oil and pepper. Roll the salmon with the help of parchment paper, transfer it to the plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for an hour. Then remove the film, cut the roll into rings, and serve with a drizzle of oil, chopped chives and some bread sticks or crispy bread.

Scallop pulp with green pesto

There scallop it's a clam appreciated, but little used in the kitchen. Try it like this, obtaining transportation: 6 scallop pulps, 4 cherry tomatoes, 1 clove of garlic, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, parsley, basil, thyme and salt to taste. Do so: sear the scallop pulp in a non-stick pan, until the surface turns golden. Then prepare the pesto, putting the aromatic herbs, garlic and two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in the blender. Chop everything, until you get a liquid cream. Wash the tomatoes, cut them into cubes. Now assemble on a serving dish: as a base a spoonful of pesto, then the scallop pulp, on top a teaspoon of diced tomatoes. Enjoy your meal!
