These Rosemary Rice Roll-Ups are a twist on traditional sushi rolls. The combination of rice, cheese, rosemary, and green onion provides a unique flavor and texture. They are filling and make for a great lunch or dinner option. Vegan and gluten-free, they can be enjoyed by everyone. The tofu sheets hold the filling well and create a perfect cylinder when rolled tightly. Serve them with a side of soy sauce or any other dipping sauce of your choice and enjoy!

Instructions

6.Brush the egg yolk over the top of each roll.
7.Bake for 20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.
