Ooh asparagus sushi, I'll have to make that next time!

One of my all-time favorite sushi roll fillings is leftover vegetable tempura. While not exactly healthy, it gives the sushi a really hearty feel. I always have a TON of tempura left over when I make it - this is a good way to use up soggy refrigerated tempura. You can also dip the sushi in tempura dipping sauce versus soy sauce and wasabi for some extra yummy-ness.

i have been jonesin' to make sushi with brown rice for awhile now. thanks for the quinoa tip! sounds like it would add some colorful interest to veggie sushi, not that it isn't already pretty!

I'm planning to make sushi for Valentine's Day. Thank you so much for all the marvellous filling suggestions! I can't wait to try them!
