Keyword: appetizer, side dish, sushi
Servings: 3 rolls

Ingredients

  • ~1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 3 seaweed nori wraps There are a few different sizes, any will work but the shorter ones will give you 3 rolls
  • about 3 sticks of imitation crab meat
  • 1/2 of a large avocado – sliced into thin slices
  • 1/2 of a cucumber – sliced into thin slices
  • spicy mayo
  • eel or oyster sauce can be found in the Asian food isle.

Instructions

  • Prep all of your fillings by slicing them into thin and long of strips.
  • Lay down the nori wrap with the dull side up,
  • Add 1/3 cup quinoa or enough to form a thin layer across the nori wrap.
  • Add your fillings and a little sauce to the center of wrap.
  • Pull up the sides of wrap and wet your finger then run wet finger across the seam of the wrap and press shut.
  • Place on plate seam side down.
  • Add spicy mayo and sesame seeds on top.
  • If slicing, use a serrated knife, but I would recommend eating this like a burrito and no slicing it.
