This post contains a sponsored link to a recipe I developed for Riceland Foods, the world’s largest miller and marketer of rice. Available at grocery stores just about everywhere.

Sushi.

Quick. What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you see the word “sushi?” Raw fish? Sticky rice? Seaweed? Wasabi? Ginger? Deliciousness?

For some, their first thought may be “ewh, I don’t eat raw fish.” Well have no fear because there IS a sushi roll that does not involve raw fish! Scan the restaurant menu and look for the one lone vegetable option, the avocado and cucumber sushi roll. No fish. Just crunchy cucumbers and creamy avocado chunks rolled up tightly with sticky rice and seaweed. See? Deliciousness can be your word, too.

It’s quite easy to make sushi from the comfort of your own kitchen and it is not as difficult as it sounds. In fact, you’ll feel like an expert almost immediately. Invest in an inexpensive sushi matt and grab a packet of Nori seaweed sheets and keep them in your pantry (affiliate links). All remaining ingredients you most likely already have in your pantry, namely an avocado, cucumber, white wine vinegar, and Riceland’s medium grain brown rice.

Why medium grain brown rice? Traditionally, sushi rice is a short-grained rice and the stickiness comes from adding sugar. I skip the sugar in this recipe and instead opt for mixing a few drops of stevia with the white wine vinegar. Riceland’s medium grain brown rice is incredibly tasty with a hint of nuttiness. In fact, this is the exact brown rice that P.F. Chang’s uses.

This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my t This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my tub with all my handmade serving bowls (and one lovely @lecreuset dish), they all came crashing to the floor.⁠
⁠
Crash!⁠
Smash!⁠
Shock.⁠
⁠
Honestly, I was happy I used them all the time, and they had a good run.⁠

I learned long time ago to use what you have. Otherwise, why have it?
The feeling after you ate too much. The feeling after you ate too much.
Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, aren’t you? Okay, I will make this brief. ⁠
⁠
Print, bookmark, or pin this Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Slider recipe. Better yet, make it for dinner!⁠
⁠
You know I’m all about being helpful. And healthy! I’ve also been afraid to walk down that frozen or prepared foods aisle at the store, thinking, “Nope, not for me. They’re not healthy.” ⁠
⁠
I feel good about @kevins.natural.foods because I know I can still eat well by keeping them on hand, whether for the four-o-clock pinch or meal planning.⁠
⁠
I first tried Kevin’s Cauliflower Mac n Cheese when it was a special buy at Aldi’s. The ingredients were simple and pure, and we were delighted to discover they tasted great!⁠
⁠
Kevin’s also has a line of delicious five-minute entrees like Peppercorn Steak, Cilantro Lime Chicken, and Roasted Garlic Chicken.⁠
⁠
My recipe for Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Sliders only has seven ingredients and seven steps. Best of all, you can complete it from skillet to table in ten minutes!⁠

Turkey?⁠
⁠
Green bean casserole?⁠
⁠
Mashed potatoes?⁠
⁠
Sweet potato casserole?⁠
⁠
Corn?⁠
⁠
Peas?⁠
⁠
Gravy?⁠
⁠
The correct answer is all of them! But mostly, you can’t have Thanksgiving without turkey, sweet potatoes, and veggies. It’s un-American.⁠
⁠
This crazy-awesome pie is stuffed with an abundance of shredded turkey, sweet potatoes, corn, peas, and gravy – Ding! Ding! Ding! – You guessed correctly! It also has ooey-gooey cheese and sour cream to add a layer of comforting delight.⁠
⁠
Link in bio for my Thanksgiving-inspired pot pie that uses three @wickspies 8″ raw circles. One for the base and two to cut lattice strips (using a ravioli cutter) so that it looks extra pretty. Of course, you could just use two raw circles. One for the base and one for the top. Just cut some slits on the top crust so that some ooey-gooey delightfulness can do its thang.⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
