What happens when you hoard pickled ginger and there's sashimi grade salmon available at the market...Spicy Salmon Sushi Bowls!!
There's a restaurant in LA called Sugarfish and to say Thomas and I are obsessed would be an understatement. Their salmon rolls are the BEST and it's exactly what I want when I need a quick meal and I'm out and about!
Last week Thomas made approx 123901823 lbs of rice on accident so I was working my way through it and turned my favorite salmon hand roll into a bowl. It's the smart thing to do! This was the result- its perfect for lunches and dinners! The sauce is savory and a little spicy and I even use it in my spicy bacon fried rice, because its just that good! Enjoy!

Love this. So fresh and full of flavor.
That was SO easy and delicious I made it twice in one week. Once with salmon, once with tofu - YUM!!!
Looks delish!
How fun when the leftovers prompt a great meal! I just love when that happens. This looks amazing.
This was SO GOOD! We made it last night and it made both of us very happy. I used cooked shrimp and just boiled the mixture so it would be warm and toasty on top of the rolls. Great recipe, thank you so much!
