Quantcast Vegetarian StarLeanne Marshall On Her Portland Vegetarian Sushi Burrito

Project Runway Finalists Fashion Show - Backstage - Spring 09 MBFW

A little update on that vegetarian sushi roll named after season 5 winner of Project Runway, Leanne Marshall. Although previous reports said Marshall had created the roll herself, The Portland Mercury is reporting the roll was already on the menu, and H50 Bistro & Bar simply named it after her, once she described what she looks for in a sushi roll.

Marshall said, “Basically, I told him that I normally go for vegetarian/non-fish sushi and then my favorite things: avocado, hot sauce, cilantro (and then listed pretty much all the ingredients to make a burrito. Ha!) As long as it had avocado and something spicy, I left the rest up to the professional chef. If it were me making it, yes, I would probably have tried to make burrito-sushi, and it would likely be a disaster!”

A picture of the burrito-sushi can be viewed below.

Not that burritos aren’t good, but with wasabi and soy sauce…eh…creative, to say the least.

Proceeds still go to Oceana, an ocean conservation group that’s assisting in the Gulf Coast oil spill relief efforts.

The inside of the roll contains the cabbage mix surrounded by sushi rice, with each roll topped with a thin slice of either carrot, tomato or avocado.
