Just in case you're wondering, I made the sushi....well it was emmm, ahh, hmmmm....not quite as satisfying as the real thing, but if you really are dying for sushi...it helps. The cauliflower in the recipe does not have the chewy consistancy that rice does and does not become "sticky" enough to hold together well when you cut the sushi...but with soy sauce and wasabi, it satisfies.

LC SUSHI

Grate 1 small head cauliflower add 2T water and microwave 6 minutes covered with plastic wrap. Cool. Sprinkle with rice vineger, 2 pkt splenda and sprinkle of xanthum gum to a "sticky" consistency.
Cut matchstick size avacado, carrot, cucumber or desired veggies and fish
Toast nori seaweed. I did this by lightly swiping through a gas flame on my stove.
Assemble sushi: In the middle of the nori sheet, layer "rice" veggies, fish, pickled ginger.
Use a sushi mat (easiest) to roll sushi or roll on wax paper making a tight roll.
Cut roll into 1 inch slices.
Serve with soy sauce,wasabi and pickled ginger. Enjoy.
Makes enough "rice to fill 4-5 sheets of Nori.
