5. Vegetarian Cucumber and Feta Sushi

Don’t these cucumber rolls closely resemble sushi? We thought so, too. We could call this vegetarian sushi with a Greek touch thanks to the feta cheese and Kalamata olives. Adding a bit of hummus makes them even more intriguing. Just as their Japanese counterparts, they’re pretty healthy. And even easier to make.

6. Salmon and Cucumber Sushi

Ok, this has no rice or soy sauce in it so it’s not exactly sushi, but rather a twist on it. And what a twist! The cucumber and cream cheese get along very well with the smoked salmon and fish roe. You just need to add the necessary hint of wasabi to give it a challenging hint.

7. Sushi Cake

You may think a sushi cake is difficult to make, but actually, it is even easier than making real sushi! Buy the classic ingredients, like salmon, cucumber, sushi rice, and sushi nori, and use a round cake pan to layer everything. That’s it!
