This is a very quick and simple recipe with all the food groups! Easy to make after work and fills you up. I make this about every 2 weeks as one of my staple meals. Great as leftovers too. Not much else to explain. You either like teriyaki or you don't.

SUSHI!

I made sushi Friday night. It was a very good meal after a long week. I love making sushi because it's very easy, fills me up, is cheap and I can eat a lot and not feel bad like I would at a restaurant. It's dairy and gluten free naturally too! I take a lot of the credit, but I really can't. My friend Leslie, introduced me to making sushi last summer. And I have been addicted ever since. Thanks Leslie :) I'm still working on the rolling and cutting part but I'm getting better. Anyways, here's the recipe!

1/2 of a cucumber
1 carrot
