Frozen peas

1 cup, thawed

Smoked salmon

8 ounces, sliced

Cucumber

1, sliced

Carrot

Sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Begin by rinsing the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. Cook the rice according to the package instructions, typically using a ratio of 1 cup rice to 1.25 cups water.
2. While the rice is cooking, prepare the dressing by whisking together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
3. Once the rice is cooked, allow it to cool slightly before fluffing it with a fork. This ensures a light and airy texture.
4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked sushi rice, thawed peas, sliced smoked salmon, sliced avocado, cucumber, and julienned carrot. Gently mix to combine all ingredients without mashing the avocado.
5. Drizzle the dressing over the sushi bowl and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
6. Top the bowl with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped green onions for added flavor and presentation.
7. Serve the Pea and Salmon Sushi Bowl immediately, garnished with extra sesame seeds if desired, and enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors!
