Avocado Sushi Salad image

An easy vegetarian sushi dish without all of the fuss. From Readers Digest Living. Works great as an appetizer or side dish and it's amazingly easy. I like to use the rice molds that they sell at Japanese markets for serving this salad. Soft lettuce works well if you wish to replace the spinach.
