Banana Sushi "Caterpillar Roll"

Spring is caterpillar season!  So, I got inspired to make a "Caterpillar Roll" sushi with banana & avocado for an early morning dessert! <3




YOU NEED:

1 Banana
1/2 Avocado
Crushed nuts ( I used roasted almonds and crushed them in food processor)
2 small blueberries (for eyes)
Thyme stems (for antennae)
Squeezed lemon juice (to keep the "caterpillar" from discoloring and to bring out the flavor in the Sauce)


SAUCE (substitute for "eel sauce"):

Honey, cacao powder and cinnamon  (you need a plastic squeeze bottle)



DIRECTION:


1. Pour lemon juice on banana first. Slice a halved avocado into thin pieces, and push it to lie flat. Soup the sliced avocado with a knife and place it on the peeled banana.



2. Use the plastic wrap to press the avocado pieces onto the banana so that they would stay stuck   together nicely.  Pour lemon juice on avocado after unwrapped.



3. Put the blueberry eyes (with "honey glue") on the caterpillar face, and stick the thyme stem antennae onto the caterpillar head.  Sprinkle the crushed nuts and decorate the "caterpillar" with the sweet sauce.



Nice and healthy "dessert sushi!"  :)


Enjoy your day! <3
