Here we go with another TIktok Trend and Italian Sushi is a trend that I can actually get behind and this is a great idea for an easy no bake appetizer. Iām a sucker for trying anything on Tiktok that is trending in the food section like the Strawberry Salsa and this Italian Sushi.
Man it is worth a trip to the grocery store to get all the ingredients for this too. Which I all got at Aldi by the way. I hope you enjoy this recipe just as much as I did.

What is Italian Sushi?
It’s a bunch of Italian ingredients like Arugula,Burrata cheese,sun dried tomatoes that gets wrapped up in Italian Deli Meats. Then it gets cut to look like sushi rolls. It’s the most genius thing I’ve tried on Tiktok and I just love the combination of flavors.
Why Italian Sushi?
The combination of proscuitto and salami with the sun-dried tomatoes and burrata cheese just go extremely well together. Itās a nice balance of flavors.
If youāre looking for a different type of appetizer to make that isnāt your same old boring pretzels and cheese sauce or bbq cocktail weiners then you need to try this and up your appetizer game. Itās a game-changer.
I got everything and all the ingredients from Aldi besides the sun dried tomatoes. Was totally surprised to see buratta cheese there (They have an extremely nice meat and cheese selection where you can get most of the ingredients for this recipe there.)
