This is the complete product of my very first (well really second) sushi roll! *fanfare*
InB4 "What's in it?"
Welp, I came home and my GF grill was on the counter next to some grilled chicken, so I snagged a piece of that and proceeded to do what I will with it (and snacked on the rest).
I got some whole carrots, 2 cucumbers (seeded & cut), and doing Alton Brown's frosting technique (meaning sandwich bag and a twist tie), put cream cheese on too. Kinda like a California roll, but without fish. I live in the Midwest, so it's hard to get fish that isn't smelly =P
And that's the sushi.
The top half consists of 2 boiled eggs (this is the first time I got them out of the shell without them being all mangled like usual, so HUGE SUCCESS), you can see my shaped carrots on the one on the right (the egg is supposed to be a star, btw).
I also threw in some red grapes (yummers) and those little cheese cubes you find in grocer's that have a whole refrigerated case dedicated to cheese and gourmet food (if you catch my drift, it ain't Wal-Mart)
That's really about it. I got the box from IchibanKan btw, they have an online store, and nice bento boxes.
Also: The first roll I attempted had far too much rice on it, so that's why I posted the 2nd attempt.
tl;dr ZOMG FIRST SUSHI EVAR MADE BY ME!!!
