Notes

Use any rice you'd like. Long grain white rice, jasmine, basmati all work great too. Premade rice is also great for quick prep.

Refrigerate: Store cooled and covered leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The avocado may turn brown so you may want to leave the toppings off when storing.

Reheating: This dish can be eaten cold or at room temperature. But you can heat individual portions in the microwave on a microwave safe plate for 20-30 seconds too if you'd. Add the toppings after heating.
