Vegetable Sushi | Farm to Table Family | PBS Parents

Sushi is an easy, light and healthy meal kids and parents can enjoy together. With hot weather around the corner you can pair the sushi with some edamame, fruit, or tofu and you're all set for a picnic or lunch to go! When you make sushi yourself you're also able to customize it 100% so you can include your kids (and your own) favorite veggies. Cut them smaller for the little ones to eat in 1 bite and you're ready to go. If you're in even more of a rush, like my husband and I often are, you can make handrolls which are even faster! It's a simple and quick family meal that can please everyone at the table. INGREDIENTS 1 cup short grain rice 2 tbsp rice vinegar 3/4 tbsp sugar 1/2 tsp salt Toasted Nori Seaweed Your choice of fillings (cooked carrots, avocado, fresh cucumbers, eggs) VEGETABLE SUSHI RECIPE 1.
