A great midweek meal invention! A even more wonderful since this is the first WFD post. The tuna is a wonderful fresh yellowfin, that is grilled on all sides, and then cut into slices. The avocado cream is a mix of avocado, wasabi, and a little organic whipping cream. The cucumber wrapped rice.. Simply sushi rice, mixed with a little seasoned rice wine vinegar. The cucumber is thinly sliced with a Japanese mandolin. The rice is stuffed into the cucumber. The salad is a mix of thinly sliced red and green cabbage, bok choy, enoki mushrooms. A simple dressing for the salad is a mix of soy sauce, freshly grated ginger and seasoned rice wine vinegar, oh, and a few sesame seeds.

The meal was delicous, and really filling. The wasabi was a great adition to the avocado, just adding a little spice. It’s funny, the idea for the avocado cream came from a face cleanser mixture Danika would mix up.. She would whisk up avocado and heavy whipping cream, and then slap it on her face! Gave me a laugh, I can tell you. Apparently really good for you skin. I am too chicken to try it though! 

With a little work, I reckon it can definately make the book. For my taste the tuna was slightly overcooked, and I might work on the rolls somewhat - the cucumber didn’t wrap that tightly.. I think if I sliced it thinner, or used zucchini instead it could work better. Anyhow, it was a great meal, and well worthy of the first WFD post.

Oh, and the salmon version is for Danika! Tuna isn’t a great fish for women nursing because of mercury polution. Wild salmon is a far safer bet.

This one is about 90% organic. The oil, sesame seeds and soy aren’t organic. Everything else is.
