I haven’t had the funds for sushi lately. My SO made me sushi last night for my birthday. Using spam, imitation crabs and the like to keep cost down. Still one of the best sushi meals I’ve had :)

1. That’s amazingly thoughtful. Good on you for having someone who clearly loves you.

2. Very nice!

3. Nothing wrong with using spam, I love spam sushi and musubi.

   This came out rather lovely, your SO should be proud of their work.

4. Whats the one in the middle in the top left plate?

5. Looks great 👍

6. 😍😍😍

7. I’m pretty sure imitation crab is used in majority of all sushi 🍣 real snow and king crab is expensive

8. During covid I was buying sushi on edd and food stamps lol

9. Heads up you can do raw at home with the right methods
   Really saves money that way

10. Is it bad that I still don’t know what SO means and thinks it stands for sex offender?

11. this is so cute omfg 😭

12. 😙🤌🖐

13. Main ingredient = LOVE. That’s priceless ❤️

14. Another “cheap” ingredient is Tamago, or egg with soy sauce and sugar. I made a ton of it when I was unemployed as our Friday night dinner and box of wine. Looks good!

15. Love to see this!! Sushi at home is so much more affordable!

16. Hmmm I’ve never thought to use spam. All of that looks delicious

17. Imitation crab is one of my favorites! Another good one is smoked salmon. It’s always right next to the imitation crab in any of the stores I’ve gotten it from. It has that kinda cold, soft texture that raw fish does, but since it’s actually already cooked, you don’t have to worry about or pay for top-quality/sushi-grade fish.
