Sushi Mice

Course Appetizer, Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 1 bell pepper sliced
  • green onions 2-inch slices
  • sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Prepare sushi rice according to package. Allow rice to cool until it can easily be handled.
  • Using your hands, shape 1/4 cup rice into small mound (mouse shape).
  • Cut the green portion of green onions into 2-inch slices. Add one to each mound to be the mouse tail.
  • Add two sesames for eyes.
  • Using a potato peeler or paring knife, peel 1/2 inch of the cucumber skin. Add two slices to be the mouse ears.
  • Serve on top of a seaweed sheet with sliced peppers and avocados.

Notes

Alternative:  You can also roll up your peppers, avocado, and any additional toppings inside of your rice mouse bodies.  I just find it easier to keep them on the side allowing your sushi mice to be customized.
