California Roll Salad
Ingredients
California roll, a type of sushi that's usually made with rice on the outside and seaweed on the inside, appeals to most sushi-shy people, as there's no raw fish. Try substituting brown rice for white for more fiber and nutrients. This salad is a great way to use leftover rice.
4 teaspoon Sesame seeds
2 cup Cooked white rice, cooled to room temperature
1 1/2 cup Fresh carrots, julienned, precut, packaged
8 oz Crab, imitation, pieces cut 1/4 inch thick
1/2 each English cucumber, peeled, seeded, cut in half and 1/4 in slc
4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
1/2 (8-inch) sheet nori, cut into thin strips, about 1 inch long (found in the International aisle)
1 each Hass avocado, ripe
2 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce (Dressing)
4 tsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice (Dressing)
2 tsp. rice vinegar (Dressing)
