Looking For Some Vegan Sushi Love?

Vegan Sushi is so easy to make and so incredibly delicious.  Today our guest Chef on #LunchBreakLIVE shows us how to make sushi using Quinoa, with a homemade Miso Tahini Dressing.  I absolutely love vegan Sushi, so I am super excited about this episode.  Sushi is delicious and presented with such artistry that it is a perfect dish for parties or gatherings.  let’s check out how it’s done…

Time To Eat Some Vegan Sushi!

Cece made her sushi with Quinoa, Cucumber. Avocado, Carrot, and Mango.  But really you can put whatever veggies make sense to you inside your sushi roll.  However, I plan to try it her way because it looks so delicious.  Sushi is actually quite simple to make if you know what you are doing, and luckily we have Cece here to teach us.  Let’s take a look at how her rolls turned out.
