Maki sushi is probably the most well known type of sushi in the U.S. It consists of a layer of nori surrounding a layer of rice surrounding the fillings in the middle, all rolled into a cylinder and then cut into several smaller slices.

Salmon Asparagus Sushi

This is a very mild but delicious roll. The asparagus is sweet and juicy, while the smoked salmon is nice and salty. It really doesn’t need any accompaniment, but if you would like, you can mix in some wasabi with your mayonnaise to add an extra little kick. Makes 6 rolls, or 36-48 slices. Ingredients

Crazy California Roll

This is a roll that I first tried and loved at the Maki Maki in Irvine, California. I liked it so much that I thought that I should try making it myself… and I was very pleased with the result! It actually tasted almost exactly like the one at the restaurant. 🙂 Yum! As always,

Bacon Cheese-Sushi

For a long time, the Western Bacon Cheeseburger from <a href="http://www.carlsjr.com/">Carl's Jr.</a> was my favorite burger ever. I usually would eat it after long, difficult rehearsals or performances, to get my energy back. So I figured, why not make a sushi similar to my favorite burger!

Deviled Egg Sushi

The deviled egg. A popular party appetizer. Delicious, everyone loves them, but they are so difficult to transport! They slip and slide around the container and make a huge mess! So what are we to do? Make Deviled Egg Sushi, that's what! It's flat on the bottom so it won't roll around, and tastes just as good (if not better) than any regular deviled egg!

Flank Steak Sushi

This flank steak recipe is one that my mom has used for ages, and I have always <em>loved</em> it! I used to always ask my mom to make it for dinner, but now that I'm all grown up I don't get her home cooked meals anymore!
