Hawaiian Roll

Feelin’ Festive today.  The Hawaiian Roll – “Sweet and Refreshing!”

This mango roll is a delight to the pallet.  Sweet and refreshing, light yet filling.  A twist on the california roll in addition with mango and cooked shrimp.  Nom nom good.  Its also one of th healthier rolls you can make.  Everyone can enjoy this roll because it contains nothing raw inside and outside.  The ingrients are easy to find at any type of market.  Besides the crabstick.  You probably got to go to the Asian market for that one.  But besides that all is gravy.  Make it, eat it serve it, pot luck it, simply good.
