Veggie "sushi" attempt.

 

A while back, we had a try-to-make-veggie-"sushi"-at-home night. It turned out okay, but not great. S did get quite good at rolling though, and I hope to try it again this summer and make some improvements on the sushi rice and overall flavor combinations. Any suggestions?

PS. I realize "veggie" sushi isn't Real Sushi, but I like it.

Using up the Food, Part 2

Last night, I got in the mood for home-made hummus and wanted to try making this home-made pita bread to go with it. Then I realized pita bread would take too long for my hunger-level. And after I looked through my cabinets, I realized I no longer had any chickpeas because of making this twice. But I did have 3 cans of red kidney beans. And I found a recipe online for some sort of "roti" Indian bread that was quick to make and did not use yeast. So I decided to get inventive. I made up a recipe for red kidney bean "hummus" and tried the wheat roti bread, which was made in the skillet, like pancakes but thinner. The "hummus" was okay, the bread was...eh. Maybe I did it wrong? But I will toast it for dinner and hopefully get it to be kind of chip-like, and that would be nice to use on the huge amount of kidney bean hummus leftovers. Two more cans of kidney beans to go. Any fun vegetarian-friendly suggestions? I guess can always do a non-meat chili 'cause I also have a lot of tomato sauce to use up...
