CUCUMBER SALMON SALAD "SUSHI"
Impress at your next party with these cucumber salmon salad "sushi" bites. No one will believe that six of these total less than 100 calories. Canned salmon is lower in mercury than tuna and nonfat Greek yogurt cuts down the fat and calories. Use small Persian cucumbers if you can - the thin skin is less bitter than regular cucumbers.

Steps:
- Combine the salmon, red pepper, celery, scallions, yogurt, lemon juice and salt in a bowl; mash with a fork.
- Cut the tips off each end of the cucumbers; cut each cucumber across into 1-inch pieces. Use a melon baller to scoop out the center of each slice of cucumber, taking care to leave the walls intact and enough of a base to hold the salmon salad. Fill each cucumber with 2 to 3 teaspoons of the salmon salad and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Heat the grill to high and brush a sturdy baking tray with oil. In a large bowl, mix the soy, mirin, sugar, ginger and garlic together until the sugar has dissolved, then toss the frozen salmon in the soy mix until coated. Tip the remaining marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer.
- Place the tray about 4in away from the heat, then grill for 20 mins. Brush the fish every few mins with the simmering marinade until cooked through and glazed. If the fillets are thick, you may need to turn them on their sides so they cook evenly. Remove from the grill. Simmer the marinade until sticky, then pour it over the cooked salmon.
- For the cucumber salad, use a swivel blade peeler to peel the cucumber into slices. Make the dressing by mixing the vinegar with the soy sauce, sugar and sesame seeds. Toss the cucumber with the dressing and serve with the salmon and boiled rice.
