If you love sushi but want something quicker, easier, and just as satisfying, this California Roll in a Bowl is your new go-to.

All the flavors of your favorite roll, deconstructed into a fresh, colorful bowl you can whip up anytime.

Start with a base of fluffy sushi rice, then layer on edamame, shredded carrots, crisp cucumbers, juicy mango, creamy avocado, and shredded roasted seaweed for that umami kick. The “spicy crab” is a fun vegan twist—mashed hearts of palm mixed with sriracha and vegan mayo to mimic that creamy, spicy texture you love. Finish it off with a drizzle of ginger dressing (my signature recipe—coming in the cookbook!), and sprinkle with cilantro and sesame seeds to garnish.

This bowl is light, balanced, and full of flavor. Save this idea and try it out—it’s a fun way to enjoy sushi at home anytime. Watch the video below to see how easy it is to assemble!
