Veggie Sushi Rolls

Veggie Sushi Rolls

Store bought seaweed wraps

Sticky Rice (Annie Chungs)

Julienne cut carrots

Diced avocado and cucumber

Artisan Lettuce

    Kung Pao Sauce (Panda Express)

Wasabi Paste (Optional)

Lemon

Drink

 Fresca Lemon-Lime Soft Drink

 Welches Passion Fruit Juice

Lay out seaweed wrap on a plate. Nuke the sticky rice for 1-2 minutes until warm. Spread a couple spoonfuls of sticky rice on the wrap. Put a spoonful of the cut veggies on top. Roll the wrap from one end to the other, making sure to catch the bits that escape. Press in on the sides of the roll to keep the rice and veggies in. Repeat however many times you want. Put a couple dollops of kung pao sauce in a small bowl and add a couple spoonfuls of cool water to mix. Pour this mixture evenly over the sushi rolls. Squeeze half of a lemon over the top (makes it less spicy), and use the other half for a garnish. Use small handfuls of the lettuce for garnish.

Mix equal parts Fresca and Passion Fruit Juice in a glass. Enjoy!

Yummy Taco Salad

                Delish Dish 
(From canned food and leftovers)
From the fridge: Taco shells, Lettuce, Baby Spinach, Sour Cream, Clementine Orange.
Canned Stuff: Artichoke hearts, Rotel tomatoes w/chiles, Salsa, Creamed corn.
Served w/sweet tea.
I was looking for something for lunch that was fresh tasting and vegetarian friendly(lacto-ovo), and also use up some leftovers. So here is what I came up with. Breaking almost stale tacos shells in half and then in smaller pieces, I laid them on a plate. I saved some lettuce that was starting to wilt, and used the crisp part for the salad. A handful of fresh baby spinach on top of that. Then I nuked some canned artichoke hearts (a third of a can) for two minutes, and layered those. I used the last of a tub of sour cream, and put generous dollops on the salad. I used a half of a small can of rotel tomatoes w/green chiles, and a couple dollops of salsa. Topped it off with a third of a can of creamed corn, and added slices of a clementine orange for garnish. I had some store bought sweet tea to drink. Simple, yet pretty to look at. It was filling and felt less like a salad, and more like a main course.
