Sushi
I have always preferred Sashimi. you can also get wraps without rice. I will get spicy tuna wrap that is very good. But I can really chomp down on Salmon sashimi. it is actually the only way I like salmon. I've only had cooked salmon that tasted good once, and that was Scottish salmon in London. Don't get that round here!
I eat a lot of salmon because it is affordable. My husband and I have a variety of ways we like to prepare it. The easiest is also the quickest.
Buy a portion of Salmon. For me that is 3 ounces. For hubby he gets 4 or 5 ounces. Sprinkle with a little sea salt and black pepper. Spray a hot frying pan with Pam. Place Salmon in pan flesh side down. Leave until the brown develops. (Brown is the important flavor.) You will know when it is time to turn it over because the color change will be about 1/2 way up the portion. Turn on to the skin side and coo****il the color is all the same. (Preferably no longer as it will dry out.) Serve!
It is better to travel and get lost...
Than never to travel at all.

Do you have a quick/easy way to cook frozen salmon without defrosting it first?
I eat sashimi. A bigger concern is if you take a PPI and eat raw fish, as we don't have as much acid to destroy pathogens, then.
I have had su****wice, once to reward myself, which I try not to do as for me it is a very slippery slope. I immediately regretted it and stick to sashimi now, or get other options. The local place will make me sushi with matchstick cucumber instead of rice, so sometimes I will get this.
I can honestly probably eat 2-3 cups of rice even having a very small sleeve. Rice squooshes down considerably in the stomach, and we begin digesting it when we chew, actually, since it's so starchy.
Japanese food is tricky, as much of it (even egg dishes) has added sugar. Far less than Western recipes, to be sure. Still there are some great options.
My current favorite is grilled eel over cucumber, or just diced firm tofu with some ponzu sauce and shredded daikon over it. High protein, low carb, low calorie, "Japanese tasting" and very bariatric friendly. Also refreshing in summer!
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!
