Sushi Bowls

These are a favorite because of how simple they are. Truly, they are equivalent to soup, in that they are a great way to use up odds and ends around the kitchen. If you aren't one for experimenting in the kitchen, and not following a hard and fast recipe makes you nervous - fear not! These are really hard to mess up. They are good hot or cold (but you might find that your choice of protein determines your preference) and they are pretty filling. 

Enjoy!

Sushi Bowls

1⁄2 C brown rice 

1⁄4 C TVP or 1⁄2 C other protein, see below* 

1⁄2 sheet nori, cut into confetti sized pieces (use kitchen shears) 

Assorted vegetables, diced 

Wasabi (squeezable, found with the mustards works best), to taste 

Low-sodium soy sauce, to taste

* Assorted sushi grade fresh raw fish, or cooked meats of your choosing, diced

Prepare brown rice according to package directions, set aside. Prepare TVP or dice selected protein and mix with rice. Add assorted diced vegetables (avocado, bell pepper and green onion are good ones to try – use whatever you like best in sushi rolls or whatever you have on hand) and sprinkle in the nori. Top with soy sauce and wasabi, to taste.

This is good either warm or cold, but your choice of protein may determine how you like it best.

Makes 1 serving.
