Easy Weeknight Sushi Bowls
Sushi is one of our absolutely favorite date nights to have. We get sushi almost weekly, we love it so much. For my birthday this year, my best friend got me a sushi making kit as well as some other goodies. While I do want to take a stab at making and rolling sushi it’s tough to find the time. Another go to for us on a busy week night or just any night we are feeling lazy is our Easy Weeknight Sushi Bowls.
These Sushi Bowls are so quick and simple to make. We like to use tuna, english cucumbers, carrots, avocado, and cabbage. But many times we make this it is one of those clean out the fridge recipes. The spicy mayo makes this dish but you can add whatever toppings you love. We add jalapeños and onion the nights we are looking for more of a kick.
While we really have only made this bowl with tuna, you can substitute in any other protein or additional toppings you would like. Also if you are looking to swap in a healthier grain try out brown rice or even quinoa with this Sushi Bowl. The options for different kinds of healthy bowls like this and our Mediterranean Bowls are endless nowadays. I love this trend of healthy bowls, everything from smoothie bowls to salads.
With all the rice and grains we make in this house we really need to get ourselves a rice maker. Like this or maybe even this fancy one! I have heard you can use an Instant Pot to make rice, we will have to try that our now that we have one. We really need to start using our new Instant Pot, people rave out them but I am honestly a little intimidated. Any suggestions to start with?
From our kitchen to yours, cheers!

Cooking your rice in the instapot should be the first thing you try. I have a rice cooker and would not trade it for anything but an instapot. I don't have one because I have all the appliances that it replaces. Anyway, your idea sounds great because I am notalways successful with rolling the suchi, and I love it. (I wouldn't cook more than 1cup of rice though, unless you are feeding more)
