Check out my progress on Guest Post: Seth’s Taco-Sushi
Good afternoon, bloggigans! Below you’ll find the first ever guest post on the Broccoli Hut, a comprehensive tutorial authored by my favorite culinary genius. Enjoy!
Hello, Broccoli Hut fans. This incredibly hot Sunday post is brought to you by the boyfriend, Seth. I, too, eat lots of foods: breakfast, first lunch, second lunch, snack, dinner, and smoothie. Today, I am introducing you to a recent creation of mine that hopefully resonates with someone out there. A picture of my invention is featured below.
“Oh Seth, we have already seen you and Caroline do a sushi post. A repeat is ‘mega-lame’ in the food community.” OH!? This may seem a repeat, but you are about to have your worlds blown apart. How? Well, let me answer that question with a simple question of my own that pertains to a Mexican delight:
What are the two flaws of an everyday burrito? Think for a moment, and proceed to my answers:
1) Seth, every time I bite into a burrito, it falls apart (Silly teenage boy at Chipotle, you flip, THEN wrap).
2) Seth, sometimes the people making the burrito do not mix up the ingredients. I end up with a mouthful of sour cream when I was hoping for beans, rice, cheese, and meat (yes this post features MEAT).
“Seth, save us from these terrible plights! Whatever are we to do!?”
Introducing the world, for the very first time: TACO SUSHI! It slices, it dices, and it doesn’t fall apart in my lap when I eat and drive. With this, you combine the wonderfully compact bite size portions of boxed sushi with the deliciousness of tacos, burritos, and even fajitas. I addition, every bite of these little creations includes every ingredient for maximum taste power. I recommend making large quantities because your friends, family, and stomach will want seconds. Allow me to walk you novices through this culinary wonder.
Step 1: Cut up some of your favorite Mexican ingredients. For my taco-sushi, I will be using red bell pepper, avocado, cheese, and tomato.
Step 2 (optional for taco-sushi with protein): Cook up some Mexican flavored meat. I used ground turkey seasoned with green chilies and a dash of hot salsa.
Step 3: Using a pizza cutter, slice a round spinach wrap into a rectangle (similar to the seaweed used for sushi). Step 3.5: Eat the extra pieces.
Step 3: Line the inside layer of the rectangular wrap with a thin layer of re-fried beans followed by white rice.
Step 4: With the layered wrap placed on your patented sushi maker (featured in the previous sushi post) line up your ingredients one at a time along the vertical axis (yes, I do physics for a living).
Step 5: Roll it up tight, and slice into small sushi blocks.
Step 6: Now is the time to impress your friends. Instead of wasabi, make up a fresh batch of guacamole with lime. (Yes, I know we are double dipping the avocado, but I won’t complain if you don’t).
And if you really want to go the extra mile, add a packet of deceptively disguised hot sauce instead of soy sauce.
Heck, throw it in a sushi box and take it on the go!
Patent pending, obviously. Boom. Now, I realize that your brains may have just melted from the awesomeness of this post. So take your time, collect your thoughts, and go make some taco-sushi.

LOVE the Japanese-Mexican fusion. Too clever!! Thanks for the fun, delicious guest post, Seth
Taco-Sushi sounds like a great idea!
Great idea, Seth! Not to mention I love how your personality comes out in your writing. I look forward to more from you in the future. Any tips on how to wrap a burrito? That first problem really resonated with me.
Have a lovely day!
xox
GENIUS! Love the technical diagram too:) Can’t wait to enjoy some mexican sushi.
Emm xx
Okay, I’m now intrigued… and hungry! I love this idea and will def have to try it in the near future!! loved the guest post– you two are such a
cute pair
“Step 3.5″ was my favorite!
I’ve done sushi before but have yet to try tacos. I guess it’s about time for taco-sushi!? Great idea, Seth, and I think your style of writing is fun!
Wow, Seth. This is actually a really awesome idea! Unfortunately, It’s probably too much work for me. Feel free to send me some!
I love this post! I think my favorite part was when you inserted the X and Y axis – hilarious
I’ve been doing the sushi thing with a lot of my sandwich wraps lately – Caroline, I’m sure you know which brand I am referring to but for the sake of not sounding like a total paid advertisement, I will not type it!
Anywho, I really like that you did it with tacos, too – makes perfect sense if you ask me! Thanks for the great guest post, Seth!
You two are so cute!!!
LOVE THIS!!! I may have to make them
Seth. You made me wait all that time…. for this?!
=) Just kidding. Or am i ?!
Cool and fun post!!
I make “bread sushi” for my son’s school lunches! I roll slices of soft whole wheat bread with a rolling pin and use it as you did with the tortilla! A thin layer of hummus (or cream cheese if you like) makes a great glue for the veggies in our bread sushi! We both love it and it is an easy lunch for him to eat at school!

This is great!
I’m impressed with how much the burrito kept together while you were slicing… as someone who does NOT do physics for a living, I always imagine the fillings falling out when they aren’t bound by something slightly sticky like nori sheets. ;p
the diagrams are A+ and I love the guacamole + hot sauce replacement for wasabi and ginger!!!
Genius! I want to try it today!
It’s strange seeing meat in the broccoli hut, though not unwelcome. Considering I am not a vegetarian myself, it’s good to sometimes see new recipes that do contain meat. Thanks for sharing, Seth, hope to see more of you in the future
Wow!
That´s a genius idea!
Thanks for sharing, Seth!
Wish you and Caroline a great night
Brazilian XOXO´s,
Gabriela
hahahahaha this is ridiculously awesome
what a genius idea!
caroline’s got herself a talented chef fo sho
Such a fantastic idea! I’m not a huge fan of sushi, though I love how pretty it looks, so this is wonderful substitution. It’d be perfect for a potluck or as appetizers at a party. Thanks for sharing
How cute is that! I love that you put it in a sushi box too!
i love step 3.5 the most
Seth–loved your guest post! Anything that has double use of avocado sounds good to me. I have a ripe one just waiting for use. I also enjoyed the technical diagram.
this is actually so awesome!
i thought it was sushi at first glance, i really did!
i must try this creation! thanks Seth
Great post! Looks delicious…going on my “must make soon” list!
Love it. Caroline, you have an awesome boyfriend.
How much do I totally love the idea of taco sushi? I bet it would make a killer dish to take to a potluck. Note to self – make for next potluck.
