Salmon Rice Bowl (30 Minutes)
Who else likes a good sushi moment?! This salmon rice bowl IS NOT SUSHI, but for me, it has those deconstructed sushi vibes to it. A similar idea to my smoked salmon sushi bowls - LOVE that recipe too! This salmon rice bowl is essentially cooked salmon and rice, combined with a spicy mayo sauce. The fun part is in the toppings. You use nori sheets, or those little seaweed snack packets (my fave), and add some of the salmon mixture to the seaweed, top it with a slice of avocado, and a few … [Read more...]
