Hello from NYC! Today is the first day of my nutrition course at the Natural Gourmet Institute! I can hardly believe it’s finally here! I am so excited to learn, read, be in the kitchen and just absorb information and I can’t wait to share what I will learn with you all!

Favorite Sushi Rolls

If I had to pick one sushi roll I could eat for the rest of my life it would be a spicy tuna roll. Don’t get me wrong; I love the crazy, complex rolls too. Some of my favorites are soft shell crab rolls, rainbow rolls, sashimi rice bowls, and all the signature rolls that you find at sushi restaurants. But give me my spicy tuna roll and I am happy.

    Spicy mayo is my crack. When I was pregnant, I was jonesing SO badly for my raw fish rolls, and I couldn’t have them. So I’d order spicy crunchy veggie rolls and hoped it would help, but man, it wasn’t the same. Still, it was comforting to have the spicy mayo!
    These rolls look AMAZING. I want one now, and it’s 6:30 AM!
