I feel like I post about sushi all the time. I don't have a problem, really... The other night some friends came over to roll some maki and of course, I ended up with loads of leftover vegetables and rice. Perfect opportunity for a new creation! The next day for lunch, I whipped up this simple salad -- Light and delicious!
There are probably plenty of variations on this; get creative!
Sushi Salad
sushi rice-- brown rice is a healthier option, but use what chu' got
a couple splashes of rice vinegar
carrots- juillened
cucumber- diced into little pieces or chunks
edamame
avocado- diced
wasabi paste or powder - I just mixed the powder right into the rice bowl for a zing
a few dashes of soy sauce
sesame seeds to garnish
Chop up all ingredients and toss them with the rice- Easy as pie!
Be the judge on how much you'd like to put into the mix. If I were to make it again, I'd put even more vegetables in it and leave some avocado out to mix in last so they don't get squashed and disappear. Serve on a plate of greens or mix up some miso soup to accompany this fresh salad!
