Spam Musubi

This is the kind of Hawaiian lunch you’ll make on repeat — spam and white rice, 30 minutes, big payoff. At 560 calories and 17g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Simple enough for a Tuesday, good enough to serve to guests — that is the whole idea.

Ingredients

• 1 Spam
• 4 cups White rice
• 1/4 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 4 sheets Nori
• 1 tsp Sesame oil

Steps

1. Slice the Spam into 8 slabs and sear until crisp and caramelized at the edges.
2. Glaze with the soy-sugar mixture and cook 1 minute more until sticky and lacquered.
3. Press warm rice firmly into a musubi mold, top with a Spam slab, and wrap snugly with nori.
4. Rest 5 minutes so the nori softens and seals; handheld Hawaii at its finest.
5. Wrap each musubi in plastic while still warm — it keeps the nori tender and the rice moist.
