I spent a year as an exchange student in Kyoto Japan, and I have to say I probably wouldnt have gotten by if it werent for a delicious dinner of udon a few times a week! There is even one shop where you can eat for free if you do 30 minutes of washing after! Anyway, I found a load more tasty looking ideas at this udon recipe site.

Yum. I like that idea. Philadelphia roll salad could be good too. I’d want some avo in this salad too.

I am happy to see that so many of our fabulous followers are loving the idea of this sushi salad. You could use any type of sushi that you order at restaurants as a rough recipe to follow and make a similar salad. Rainbow Roll Salad. Philadelphia Roll Salad. The possibilities are endless! Have fun, ladies, with your experimenting!

I have made a similar rice bowl from 101cookbooks but forgot about it for a while. Thanks for the reminder…this makes a great meal.

YUM!

@ Jen… I think at the bottom of the side bar in the “Meta” box there is a Comment RSS.

That may help you keep up with the comments… but perhaps that’s just for all comments & you want a post particular button?

I am low-tech.

I am not a sushi expert my any means, but isn’t it slightly unorthodox to use anything other than jasmine or calrose rice? Is jasmine a long grain? I had never thought of trying it with brown rice. That is a very good idea. Thanks for this!

PS I wish you had a “subscribe to followup comments” button. That would help me a lot.

Great idea to “deconstruct” the sushi roll! As long as the flavors are there, it’s going to taste delicious whether it’s rolled or not, and the salad bowl is so much easier.

I discovered this delicious trick a couple years ago–I have made it with brown rice (short grain) and I liked it that way. I haven’t made it since I came down with an avocado allergy last summer (yes, life is barely worth living now, I know).

I like this salad with a wide range of veggies–julienned red peppers and carrots, blanched asparagus, cukes, and, of course, the mighty avocado, and toasted sesame seeds on top!
