ABOUT LUCKY FOODS
Lucky Foods is still family-owned-and-operated. Like most Asians, many of them immigrated to United States to pursue their American Dream. This is what their family did and what started as a single restaurant later became a manufacturer for thier original products, Lucky Spring Rolls.
Lucky Foods expanded their product line to share their family’s Korean recipes through the Seoul brand. With each spring roll they hand-roll, and each batch of kimchi they make, they’re working to cultivate better food that is better for the planet. You will never find MSG, GMOs, added colors or preservatives in Lucky Foods. What you will find is wholesome produce and fresh, aromatic spices.

THE CHICHARON CRAB SUSHI BAKE BREAKDOWN
- Imitation Crab – I used imitation crab cause it’s easier to manage and I can freeze the rest to make more!
- Cream Cheese – Full fat or light or fat free can be used
- Lucky Foods Seoul Kimchi Mayo
- Cooked Rice – I had regular Jasmine rice. You can use the standard sushi rice. I added Coconut amino and a splash of rice vinegar for more flavoring.
- Furikake Flakes – You can find this in the grocery isles at the asian section.
- Mexican Cheese Blend – Come on now! Melted shredded cheese gives off flavor.
- Chicharon Crumbles – I bought whole chicharons in a bag and crushed them myself because I like some chunks. There are premade crumbles sold at most international markets.
- Red Ginger (Pickled Ginger) – This is totally optional if you’re not a fan of ginger. I used the red ginger for the pop of color.
- Green Onions – Another optional item but you need atleast more veggies in here, right?
- Wasabi Sheets – I love using the wasabi flavor so you don’t have to buy the wasabi paste. This gives a hint of wasabi flavor and you won’t notice it.
