SuSheep Sushi Rolls:

Servings: 2-4 rolls each

Ingredients:

• 2 slices 100% whole wheat bread, crusts removed
• 1/4 cup hummus
• 1 medium carrot, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
• 1 stalk celery, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
• 1/4 cucumber, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
• Nori sheets (seaweed) for decoration (optional)
• Soy sauce, for serving
• Pickled ginger and wasabi, for serving (optional)

Instructions:

1. Flatten the encrusted slices of bread with a rolling pin to make them easier to roll.

3. Lay the carrot sticks, celery sticks, and cucumber sticks in a row horizontally along the length of the bread slices.
4. Now comes the fun part! To create the SuSheep shape, start rolling each slice of bread up tightly, ensuring that the edges meet and form a secure seal. The hummus will act as a glue to hold everything together.
5. Once you have rolled both slices of bread into cylindrical rolls, press lightly along the seam to ensure the rolls stay intact.
6. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut each roll into four pieces. These pieces will resemble adorable SuSheep sushi rolls!

8. Arrange the SuSheep sushi rolls on a plate and serve with soy sauce for dipping. If you like a bit of heat, you can also serve them with pickled ginger and wasabi on the side.
