Wow, how impressive that you made this up! I can see why this went into someone's best of the year cookbook, it really is that delicious. I used fat free cream cheese and lox (to approximate the raw salmon I get in my Philadelphia rolls). I think putting a little thinly sliced cucumber on these would complete the perfection. I could see crab or other vegetarian items replacing the lox too. This was super filling for breakfast, it could feed twice as many for some people.

If you invented this OUTSTANDING recipe, you should definitely get your own cooking show and write a cookbook too! This is better than lots of sushi I've had, because of the "crunch" from the rice cake - ironically, since I don't really like rice cakes. They're so good in this application. I used neufchatel cheese to cut down on fat, and chilled the salmon mixture for a few hours. I couldn't taste the wasabi so next time will make wasabi paste and spread it across the rice cake before the salmon mixture. This unbelievably does satisfy a sushi craving!
