Ingredients

• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 2 cups Cauliflower, riced
• 4 ounces Cream cheese
• 8 ounces Fresh salmon, skinless fillet
• 1 cup Cucumber, julienned
• 1 Avocado, sliced
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
• 2 tablespoons Toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Place the riced cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with a microwave-safe lid and heat on high for 3-4 minutes until tender.

Step 2

Remove the cauliflower rice from the microwave and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, place it in a clean tea towel or cheesecloth, and squeeze out any excess moisture.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the squeezed-out cauliflower rice, cream cheese, and rice vinegar. Mix until well combined. This will act as the keto-friendly rice replacement.

Step 4

Slice the salmon into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide and a couple of inches long, for easy rolling.

Step 5

Place a bamboo sushi mat on your counter and cover it with a piece of plastic wrap. Lay a nori sheet on top, shiny side facing down.

Step 6

Spread a thin layer of cauliflower rice mixture over the nori, leaving about an inch at the top edge uncovered.

Step 7

Arrange strips of salmon, cucumber, and avocado along the bottom edge of the nori sheet.

Step 8

Using the bamboo mat for support, roll the nori carefully over the fillings, tucking in as you go to ensure a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water if needed.

Step 9

Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into even pieces. Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.

Step 10

To serve, sprinkle the sliced rolls with toasted sesame seeds, and offer soy sauce and wasabi on the side for dipping.
