Ingredients
Bacon Wrapped Sushi
- 16 slices thick-cut bacon (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 1/2 cup short or medium grain rice, cooked
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
BLT Roll
- Prepared rice
- Bacon
- 2 heirloom tomatoes, sliced
- Green lettuce
- 1 avocado, sliced
Macaroni and Cheese Roll
- 2 fried chicken tenders
- 1 1/2 cups macaroni and cheese
- Red bell pepper, sliced into long, thin strips
Steps
Bacon Wrapped Sushi
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line an 11 by 17 inch sheet pan with parchment paper, and lay down bacon, each slice just barely overlapping the last. (This will form your nori replacement.)
- Cover the bacon with another sheet of parchment and then sandwich another 11 by 17 sheet pan on top to prevent the bacon from curling/shifting during the baking process.
- Bake for 30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the cooking process to ensure even cooking. You want the bacon to still be pliable.
- Mix short grain rice with mayo; set aside.
- Lay out a sushi mat or parchment paper on a cutting board.
- Place the sheet of bacon down so the ends of the strips are closest to you.
BLT Roll
- Spread out an even layer of the rice on top of the bacon.
- Lay down 4 pieces of lettuce. Starting from the end closest to you, lay a row of tomato slices then a row of sliced avocado.
- Starting from the edge closest to you, and using the mat or parchment to help guide, tightly roll up the sushi.
Macaroni and Cheese Roll
- Spread macaroni and cheese as you did the rice.
- Starting from the end closest to you, lay down chicken tenders then a row of sliced peppers. Tightly roll up.
