Preheat your oven to 425°F.

While fish sticks are cooking, microwave the rice and place it in a bowl with shredded cabbage, pico de gallo, and guacamole.
When fish sticks are finished cooking, add them to the bowl and garnish with lime slices.
Sprinkle with cilantro and drizzle cilantro salad dressing on top.
Use parchment paper to prevent fish sticks from sticking to the baking tray.
For extra flavor, squeeze fresh lime juice over the bowl before serving.
