Mexican Sushi

“Like so many things: it is not what is outside but what is inside that counts” …classic song quote from Aladdin helps explain these Mexican Sushi Rolls.

These are like a wolf in sheep’s clothing OR a blessing in disguise… long story short: these look like sushi but taste like Mexican food! Go ahead and make these using some squared off tortilla shells, sushi rice & your favorite mexican (dry works better) fillings. Some of these looked a lot like Mexican Roll-Ups (yes – Rich’s looked a lot better than mine… thanks darling for saving my ok-is looking rolls into some awesome faux-sushi AND for taking some great photos) but throw one some sauce and you have a great fake-out dinner. Feel free to give these a try with nori as well!
