Veggie Sushi Rolls

     Thursday was my daughter's birthday, she turned 10, but since it was a rather busy evening she decided that she wanted to celebrate her birthday on Friday night, since she could stay up later and have more fun. I thought that was very wise of her.


     In our house every birthday boy or girl gets to pick what their birthday dinner and dessert is going to be. She informed me over a month ago that she wanted Zucchini Pasta with Marinara Sauce, a few weeks ago she said that she wanted Make Your Own Wraps, about a week ago she decided that she wanted Zucchini Pasta Salad and the other day she informed me that she wanted Veggie Sushi Rolls. She definitely has good taste! She never varied on her dessert though, Banana Ice Cream with Raw Granola. The Raw Granola was her own personal recipe. *smile*


     So last night we dined on Veggie Sushi Rolls and Banana Ice Cream with Raw Granola. Then we finished off our evening opening presents and playing games. It was a very fun and delicious evening! Below are our favorite recipes for Raw Sushi Rolls and Banana Ice Cream. What have you fixed lately that you fell in love with?
