- 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce

- 1/2 teaspoon lime juice
For the Bowls:
- 1 cup edamame, shelled

Instructions
- Prepare the Sushi Rice:
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rice and water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the water is absorbed.
- In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, remove from heat and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow the rice to cool slightly.
- Make the Dynamite Sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Bowls:
- Divide the sushi rice between two bowls. Arrange the edamame, carrot, cucumber, avocado, and red cabbage on top of the rice.
- Drizzle the dynamite sauce generously over the top of the bowls.
- Garnish with pickled ginger, toasted sesame seeds, and nori strips. Add any additional garnishes like green onions, microgreens, or radish slices, if desired.
- Serve:
- Serve immediately with soy sauce on the side for drizzling. Enjoy your Dynamite Plant Power Sushi Bowls with chopsticks or a spoon for the full sushi experience!
