Healthy Lunch or Dinner Recipe- Sushi Salad




We have had many requests for our recipe for the “Smoked Salmon and Avocado Sushi Salad.” This salad is light enough to be a side for a heavier meal, but substantial enough to be the main course for a smaller one. It makes an excellent healthy, protein packed lunch; its vibrant, complimenting, green, and pink hues, make for an elegant treat.



Recipe:


SUSHI SALAD


3 Cups Sushi Rice – Best if cooked the day before, cook according to instructions.


Carrots –Grated very finely


Cucumbers –Matchstick (Sliced into thin strips)


Tinned Corn Drained


Avocado – Sliced into Strips or Squares


Spring Onions – Chopped


1 Pack of Smoked Salmon – Cut into thin strips


Red Pepper -Sliced into thin strips


Edemame Beans


Pickled Ginger- Sliced



Dressing


Mix and Shake or Stir Well


1 cup mayonnaise


1/2 Cup Soy Sauce


2 Tsp Wasabi


6 tsp Sugar


2 Tbs Water


Make three cups of sushi rice at least a few hours before making the salad (best if it is made the day before) and leave it at room temperature. Mix all of the Ingredients (except the Avocado) together in a bowl and toss with the dressing. Lay the Avocado Slices around the salad and add more Pickled Ginger if desired. Serve and Enjoy!
