Pickle Sushi!

      I know this may sound weird or gross but trust me on this.  It is delicious and almost addicting.  It the perfect snack.  It is salty.  It is cheesy.  It's a bit sour.  All the good stuff, all rolled up into one.  It truly is the most addictive snack and one in which you never even knew you wanted.

       Lately, everywhere you look on Facebook and Pinterest are pickles.  Pickle popsicles, pickle this and pickle that.  So, why not pickle sushi?!   Just one more creative way to eat a pickle that your taste buds will thank you for!


Pickle Sushi

1/2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 c. mayonnaise
2 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 jar of whole dill pickles
deli shaved ham lunch meat
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. chili powder

       To begin with, cut off the ends of each of your pickles.

     Take your pickle and using a mandolin, slice the pickle lengthwise.  Make each slice very thin.  If you do not have a mandolin, you can use a vegetable peeler.  Either will work nicely.

        Take a small bowl and mix together the mayonnaise and cream cheese. Then stir in the spices and the cheddar cheese.

        Spread a small amount of cheese onto the end of each pickle slice.

     Now take a piece of the lunch meat and fold it in half and cut it into strips.

        Then roll up or fold up each piece and place one piece onto each pickle slice on top of the cheese.

      Roll up.  You can use a toothpick to hold in place or stack close together and they will hold just fine too.  Repeat with the rest of the pickles and enjoy.  Tastes yummy on their own or dip them into your favorite dipping sauce.

  1. I would be willing to try it but I am not sure I would like it. Where ever did you come up with such an idea?

    1. I just seen so many things lately being all about pickles and realized there is such a pickle craze right now that I wanted to come up with something original and different. As I was brainstorming, I was playing a cooking app on my Ipad and was serving sushi when the idea hit me. :-)
