Amazing vegan sushi with omelette and pan-fried eggplant

I'm engaged, ya'll! It feels so great to finally share these news with you. Why I announce it with a sushi recipe? Because sushi has a special place in my heart. It was a gorgeous May afternoon, when my best friend and the love of my life got on one knee and asked me to marry him. After that, he brought us that incredible avocado sushi from a town near to us. The place is operated by friendly young women and a full set of sushi costs 3 euros (that is 3,5 dollars). We always get at least three sets, because it's so good. Sushi has been one of our favorite foods to celebrate something special (in addition to lasagna). It's especially great during these hot summer days. A perfect cold snack that is also festive.

Vegan millet sushi with roasted root vegetables and broccoli cream

When I first discovered homemade sushi, it was on our menu really often. Large trays of sushi on a regular Tuesday night? No problem. It was THE thing to make. But when the first amazement passed, my sushi rolling mat was sadly sitting in the corner and eventually I even lost it somewhere. But lets bring sushi back! And in a new and exciting way. 

I bought a new rolling mat and a fresh packet of roasted nori sheets. My boyfriend was really excited for this, since he loves sushi and the taste of nori. He is actually not a huge fan of millet, but in this sushi, he devoured it like no tomorrow. 

This millet sushi with roasted root veggies and broccoli cream is really something different. Millet has a very similar texture to rice, but it's more light and fluffy. Roasted veggies are baked to perfection and taste mildly sweet. I also added some delicious light broccoli and sunflower cream. All of this together make a fabulous healthy and filling snack!
