This Crab Sushi Bowl is PERF for Summer! Especially if you are not in the mood for raw fish!!
Okay so I’ve officially announced to the world that I’m pregnant! And while what an exciting thing- the food side of things, ain’t so jazz hands and champagne. I won’t let that won’t stop me, but if you notice something is up with my food choices. You have officially been warned.
This Crab Sushi Bowl was born because simply, I was missing sushi. And this was exactly what I needed. The Base of the Crab Sushi Bowl is sushi rice mixed with pickling liquid. On top, there is homemade quick-pickled cucumbers, edamame, avocado, spicy crab mix, mayo, sriracha, green onion, and sesame seeds!
Nicely fresh and cool for summer!!
