These Veggie Sushi Bowls with Quick Pickled Radishes are incredibly easy to make and come together for a great, healthy lunch or dinner option.
When I bought the avocado used in these Veggie Sushi Bowls, I had initially planned to use it to make baked avocado fries. I thought it was going to be the best idea in the world and was pretty excited about it. I took them out of the oven and could hardly wait until they had cooled to try them. I took the first bite and they were absolutely terrible!
They were bitter and had a horrible taste. I was really disappointed, so I decided to make these sushi bowls to cheer myself up. And it worked like a charm!
Veggie Sushi Bowls with Quick Pickled Radishes Recipe Ingredients
- Rice
- Vegetables – I used carrot, cucumber, avocado, seaweed sheets, and radishes.
- Optional toppings – I used (and recommend!) soy sauce, toasted sesame seeds, and wasabi.
- Quick Pickled Radishes – The pickled radishes are made with a large bunch of thinly sliced radishes, distilled white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt.
Recipe Tips and Thoughts
- These bowls are vegan and gluten-free.
- I’m sure I’ve said it before, but I really love sushi. I eat it any chance I get, but when it comes to rolling my own at home, that just ain’t gonna happen. I think I’ve tried once, and it was very loose and not pretty at all. So now, I make sushi bowls instead and they are much easier.
- I’m a little obsessed with the pickled ginger that comes with sushi, and usually have to ask for extra because I’ve eaten so much. Since radishes are in season right now (and super delicious), I thought it would be fun to mix it up and use pickled radishes in place of the ginger. And, it’s so good! I just did a quick pickle of the radishes because, as much as I would like, I just don’t have the motivation to can.
- These Veggie Sushi Bowls with Quick-Pickled Radishes are incredibly easy to make and delicious to eat for lunch or dinner!
- They’re also really great to make ahead and pack for lunch.
- Store these bowls in the fridge for up to three days.

Do you use a food processor to grate or slice your veggies? They look perfect.
If so, what is the make and model you use.
Thanks, Shaheen
Hi Sharon! I used a mandolin to slice the radishes and then a julienne vegetable peeler for the other vegetables š
Beautiful picture, looks DELICIOUS, and I will be trying it soon!
Thanks! I hope you enjoy š
I am so sold! For the life of me I cannot turn out a good sushi roll, so will be more than happy to do it this way. Pickled radishes is a brilliant idea.
I am obsessed with bowls like this these days and the more colorful the better. I can’t believe I still haven’t pickled anything…not sure what I’m waiting for. Looks delicious!
First, these bowls sound delicious! But more importantly those pickled radishes!! I am currently obsessed with radishes and must try this!! haha š
Oh my Izzy… I’ve not tried baked avo fries.. it just doesn’t appeal to me. Especially now, after hearing your experience with them! :/ I just did some quick pickling.. onions and radish! SO tangy and delicious. This sushi bowl looks fabulous! So less fussy than rolling sushi. I’m soooo looking forward to local cucumber this summer, I can hardly stand it!
Love the quick pickled radished- this sushi bowl looks so incredible!
