Sushi & Kids: What You Should Know

• Steak Sandwich - thin slices of steak and sautéed peppers and onions
• Teriyaki Chicken - Grilled or fried chicken breast strips, drizzled with teriyaki sauce
• Fiesta Roll- fajita-style marinated grilled chicken breast strips with peppers and onions, drizzled with chili sauce

You don't always have to use nori (seaweed sheets); properly prepared sushi rice will stick to itself and hold together without the extra layer.

Fake Sushi Desserts

The preparing of the roll is one of the most fun steps in a sushi event. You can make faux sushi desserts for a fun and safe sushi party for your kids or as a treat for the whole family.

Peanut Butter Sushi Sandwiches

Trim the crusts off the bread and spread each one with peanut butter. Slice the bananas lengthwise into strips slightly shorter than the longest edge of the bread and about 1/2" thick. Slice the strawberries into quarters.
