Gluten-free Seaweed Avocado Pasta


Ingredients:
Dry and roasted seaweed 
1 or 2 ripe avocado
2 tbsp. soy sauce
brown rice pasta

1. In a large bowl, shred the seaweed (any amount) as fine as you can. 
2. Add avocado and soy sauce (or soy sauce alternatives, eg: Bragg liquid aminos)
3. Add cooked brown rice pasta
4. Mash, mix and enjoy


Seaweed is easy to find in many stores, like whole foods, sprouts and costco. They usually come salted and roasted already.  I got them from a Korean market because they sell larger sheets there.
