Veggie Sushi Burrito
**Ingredients:**
– 2 nori seaweed sheets
– 2 cups sushi rice, cooked
– 1 avocado, sliced
– 1 carrot, julienned
– 1 cucumber, julienned
– 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
– 1/2 cup shelled edamame
– 2 tbsp rice vinegar
– 1 tbsp sugar
– 1/2 tsp salt
– Soy sauce and wasabi, for serving
**Instructions:**
1. In a small bowl, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Mix well until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
2. Place the cooked sushi rice in a large bowl and pour the vinegar mixture over it. Gently fold the rice using a rice paddle or wooden spoon to mix the vinegar in. Let the rice cool to room temperature.
3. Lay out a sheet of nori on a flat surface, shiny side down. Moisten your hands with water to prevent sticking, and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.
4. Arrange the avocado, carrot, cucumber, bell pepper, and edamame in the center of the rice in a horizontal line.
5. Using the nori as a guide, carefully roll the sushi burrito tightly, tucking in the fillings as you go. Wet the edge of the nori to seal the burrito.
6. Repeat the process with the second nori sheet and remaining ingredients.
7. Using a sharp knife, slice each sushi burrito in half crosswise.
8. Serve the veggie sushi burritos with soy sauce and wasabi for dipping.
