Nori Hummus Rolls



Nori is a paper thin seaweed food used in sushi cooking. It is a wonderful source of minerals and so easy to use. You can find it in most natural food stores in the Asian section. There are several different types of seaweed foods that works great in soups and salads. Today, I am sharing an easy wrap recipe. No cooking required and preparation time is 10 minutes.

2-3 Nori Sheets
3 Tblspoon of Hummus (any flavor will do, I like garlic)
1/4 Cucumber, sliced in thin sticks about 1/2 inch long, no seeds
1/4 of a Red or Orange pepper, sliced in thin sticks about 1/2 inch long
1/2 Tomato, slice thin
3 Tblsps of diced red onion
Toasted Sesame Oil as needed
Gamasio-a seaweed, sea salt seasoning found in the Asian section of natural food stores

Lay down a Nori Sheet. Scoop about 1 Tbls of Hummus and spread in the center of the sheet. Layer each ingredient on the hummus spread. Drizzle some Sesame Oil and sprinkle some Gamasio on top. Roll your Nori sheet up like a Burrito. Makes 2-3 wraps. Serve with a tossed salad. Enjoy!
