Planning vacation(s) is definitely the best mood booster ever. I am so so SO excited! I’ve been needing a nice, relaxing vacation for a while now. And now I have two to look forward to 
I’ll give details later when things start coming together some more…
Today has been another fly-by day. Even though I was still completely stuffed from my ginormous lunch, I snacked on some roasted eggplant and steamed cabbage topped with hummus.
I just can’t resist cooked veggies. There could be worse problems, I’m sure. That snack totally ruined my appetite for dinner, so I opted for a “dessert dinner,” which was inspired by my lunch today.
I present you with: dessert sushi.
Okay, so this doesn’t necessarily have to be a dessert. It would be perfectly suitable for a breakfast or a snack as well….or dinner, in my case. Whatever you decide, please give this a try. It is so delicious and fun to eat. And it’s perfect for those of you who don’t like real sushi (*ahem* weirdos! kidding ). And it was super easy. First I spread two spoonfuls of almond butter on a Flatout Wrap (any wrap or tortilla would probably work). Then I topped with some mashed banana and dark chocolate chips.
Roll it up, like so:
And cut into little “maki” sushi pieces.
PERFECTION. Not the most traditional dinner, but I’d rock this every day of the week, easily.
I’m off to have a conference call with Liz and Kath (does anyone actually still do that?) and then call it an early night. G’night babes! xoxo G
Do you like sushi? What’s your favorite kind?
When I first read the title I was like whaaat?!
But OMG Girl, Dessert Sushi!??! That is an amazing amazing idea. I’ll most definitely have to make it ASAP, thanks for showing us how you did it!
What a cute snack idea! You always have some creative eats.
That is a cool idea! I love love love sushi!! I haven’t had it in so long either. I need to get on that before I can’t eat it for 9 months
That is a great snack!
And I’m in love with sushi. My favorite is the good ‘ole California roll..yum!
Looks good. My favorite sushi is rainbow roll.
This looks good, I’m going to try this out tomorrow.

That dessert looks amazing! Do you use dark chocolate chocolate chips? I can never find any, so I always use the milk chocolate ones
Wow! Fan-freakin-tastic. Looks delicious. I must try this soon.
You are so creative! I am so making that! YUM! Your eggplant looks so good too!

Ahh this so reminds me of one of my favorite desserts!! Heat up a tortilla with some melty peanut butter, “warmed” pear slices, goooooey carob chips and cinn on the stove!! You could totally sub chocoloate chips for the carob too….or eat it cold and “sushi”-like
Love the idea! Trying it sooooon!
Whet a great dessert!
I will so be trying this dessert sushi. I love bananas (thank goodness, cause it’s about the only fruit I like) and chocolate chips. But I’ve never tried almond butter. I’m such a newbe to this stuff. Anyway, it looks delicious!
p.s. I’ve never tried real sushi.
