Making sushi doesn’t need to cost an arm and a leg. It only makes sense for us BCer’s living on Vancouver Island to make sushi at home since we are surrounded by water. Whether you do use fish or not sushi rolls are probably one of the most cheapest dishes one can make. After all it’s main ingredient is rice! This is my version called the BC Roll.

- Spear up a cucumber and slice avocado and set aside.
- Prepare sushi rolls as follows: cover a bamboo rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on plastic wrap. Pat a thin layer of rice over nori, leaving 1/4-inch of nori uncovered at bottom edge of sheet.
- Spread a line of cucumber spears, a line of avocado slices, and tuna at the bottom of the sheet of nori. Pick up the edge of the bamboo rolling sheet, fold the bottom edge of the sheet up, enclosing the filling.
