Vegetarian Sushi

Vegetarian Sushi

I heard about sushi a Japanese dish and wanted to give a try for first time. Yesterday, we went out and came late. So I decided to make sushi. My daughter helped me to do that. I made it very easy with rice, cooked spinach, carrot and cooked beans. It came out very well. My husband also liked it. Our friend doctor told if you include sea weed in your diet. no need to take tablet for thyroid. Those have thyroid problems eat sushi once in a week.There are many delicious vegetable combinations that can be used in sushi(cucumber,avocado,mushrooms, roasted eggplant, asparagus, zucchini and bell pepper),Sushi is served with soy sauce.Vegetarian sushi is my favorite since I am strict vegetarian.
