Vegan Quinoa Sushi (gluten-free
This vegan quinoa sushi is plant-based, gluten-free, soy-free and oil-free. Quinoa sushi puts a fun twist on your traditional sushi roll as it's made with quinoa instead of white rice.
Ingredients
- 2-3 cups cooked quinoa add turmeric to the cooking water to make turmeric quinoa
- nori seaweed sheets
- cucumber slices
- avocado slices
- pepper slices
- 1 tbsp per cooked cup of quinoa rice vinegar
- sesame seeds optional for topping
Instructions
- Cook your quinoa and set aside to cool for about 30 minutes before making your sushi rolls.
- While the quinoa cooks, prepare your veggies! Slice up whatever veggies you want in your rolls. I used the veggies listed but you can add carrots, spinach, mango, etc.
- Add the rice vinegar to the quinoa after it has cooled.
- If you don't know how to make sushi then I would suggest watching a YouTube tutorial beforehand.
- Lay your nori sheet out on your bamboo rolling mat or a towel if you don't have one. Add a thin layer of the quinoa on the sheet leaving about an inch of room at the top.
- Lay your veggie on top of the quinoa then roll!
- Slice the roll carefully and gently with a very sharp knife.
- Serve and enjoy! I paired my roll with a sauce made from coconut aminos and sriracha.
Notes
Make as many or as little rolls as you would like!
You can add or omit any veggies from these rolls.
