Yelena (Sasha, BY) shares two fun recipes that got kids eating seaweed and vegetables. Way to go Yelena!
Vegan Sushi
Spread hummus on a sheet of nori (Yelena bought hers at Berkeley Bowl) and top it with a thin layer (approx. 3 to 4 tablespoons) of brown rice or sushi rice. Roll up and serve with soy sauce.
Veggie Spring Rolls
Soak rice paper (also from Berkeley Bowl) in warm water to soften. Assemble a variety of fillings and let children choose:
Seasonal veggies
Julienned carrots
Lettuce
Green onions (although these weren't popular with the children)
Sprouts
Flower petals (a "hot item")
Cucumbers, etc.
Place fillings in paper and make into rolls. Serve with a dipping sauce. Yelena mixed soy sauce, lemon juice, sesame oil and maple syrup. Delicious!
