Answers:
Kids may be a little funny about sushi if they are not used to it, but if you had a 'sushi bar" with bowls of rice, bamboo mats and nori, and all the fixings- avocado, shrimp, cucumber, crab sticks, and let them make there own hand rolls or maki- you should have a great time.

edamamae- the soy beans, are really great too for an appetizer.

I would love to know tasty healthy ones too becuase i LOVE japanese food! I know some of the soups are good though.. sizzling rice and egg drop

Sushi, is very easy to make college kids love it, probably young ones too.

Quick and easy healthy Japanese food huh? There's always Nabe, Sukiyaki, sushi rolls and beef bowls.

For Nabe (light soup dish) you need...
*Dashi powder (or fish or kelp or shitake broth) + water
*various veggies (cabbage, carrots, green onions, mushrooms) cut into about 1-3 inches pieces or how every you like.
*thinly sliced beef or pork (or you can opt for mixed seafood)
*soy sauce & pepper to taste
Dir: In pretty nabe pot, boil the water and add the dashi powder (or boil the broth). Add meat or seafood and veggies. Make sure you arrange them nicely. Serve with Rice.

Sukiyaki
*Dashi powder (or fish or kelp or shitake broth) + water
* very thinly sliced beef or pork
* Sukiyaki sauce (or u can make your own soy sauce, sugar, mirin rice wine)
* mushrooms and chinese cabbage, carrots and leeks
* tofu cut into blocks
* rice noodles (thicker or think kind. not the ones used for regular pancit, but ones used in sotanghon)
Dir: Boil water and add dashi powder (or boil broth), add sukiyaki sauce to taste, throw everything in and let it boil. Serve with rice. This is best if you have a little camping stove, and you have a big pot and boil it in the middle of the table and everyone can eat while it's boiling.

Sushi Rolls
*dried roasted seaweed (the black sheets of seaweed)
*rice (short grain and white, if possible mix calrose rice and sweet rice; ratio of 3:1, so for every 3/4cup calrose rice 1/4 sweet rice)
*rice wine vinegar
*a little bit of salt
*sugar
*carrots, cucumbers cut into thin long strips
*2 eggs beaten with 1tsp sot sauce + 2 tsp sugar, steamed or microwaved in a square microwavable container til cooked. slice into about 1/2inch x1/2 inch thick strips.
*artificial crab meat sticks cut into about 1/2inch x 1/2inch thick strips.
How: Prepare rice in rice cooker. While hot, transfer to bowl (wooden one for sushi if possible), sprinkle a bit of salt, sugar and rice wine vinegar and mix to taste. Add more or less vinegar and sugar for perfect blend. Let rice cool. Lay seaweed on flat clean surface, press on a thin layer of rice to cover 3/4 of the sheet. lay other ingredients over rice (to make various kinds you can use 1 item at a time or 2 or all) and roll sushi, starting from the riced section, over the ingredients, then with slightly wet fingers (with water) dab on some water on the seaweed with no rice (about 1 inch to the end) and continue to roll. This should seal the roll. Cut to about inch thick pieces with a sharp thin knive. If knife gets too sticky, put some cooking oil on a paper towel or kitchen towel and run over knife clean. Serve with soy sauce on the side and wasabi (for the big kids).

Beef Bowls:
*Thinly sliced beef
*yakiniku sauce (bought from store)
*onions thinly sliced
* mushrooms
* 1 stp oil
*salt and pepper to taste
Dir: Brown beef with salt and pepper, add onions and mushrooms. Add yakiniku sauce over beef and let it carmelize a bit and cook. Serve hot over Rice.
