I laid down for a short nap today… and woke up 2-1\/2 hours later. I must have been tired out from all the cat food sushi.<\/p>\n

Why do I call it that? Because it’s made using cans of tuna fish and kind of looks like cat food. Though it tastes pretty all right.<\/p>\n

\"catfood_sushi1\"
\n1. Spread some rice over half of a sheet of seaweed (nori). I flavored the rice with salt, sugar, and vinegar to taste.<\/p>\n

\"catfood_sushi2\"
\n2. Add a layer of tuna fish on the rice. I flavored the tuna with sesame oil, garlic powder, and sriracha. This would be a good time to add other toppings if you’ve got them: green onion, egg, yellow kimchi, spinach, avocado, gochujang sauce.<\/p>\n

\"catfood_sushi3\"3. Use the plastic wrap to shape and roll the sushi.
\n\"catfood_sushi4\"The plastic wrap makes it a lot easier to control your roll \ud83d\ude1b You can poke back in anything that comes out the ends and squeeze the roll into a tighter shape.
\n\"catfood_sushi5\"4. Wet a sharp knife and slice the roll through the plastic wrap.
\n\"catfood_sushi6\"The pieces maintain their shape and you can pull the plastic wrap off when you’re done.
\n\"catfood_sushi7\"<\/p>\n

At this point, you can eat them as is, or enjoy them with a dipping sauce of soy sauce, sesame oil, crushed red pepper, garlic powder, and chopped green onion.<\/p>\n

Even if your pantry is a bit bare, you can find tasty food to make and enjoy.<\/p>\n

If you’ve got rice, seaweed, and a couple cans of tuna fish, you’re not going to go hungry today. Pair it with some miso soup and you’ve got a filling meal for yourself and your family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
