Ingredients

• 1 head Cauliflower
• 2 tablespoons Rice Vinegar
• 4 ounces Cream Cheese
• 4 ounces Smoked Salmon
• 1 Cucumber
• 4 Nori Sheets
• 2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds
• 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (or Tamari for gluten-free)
• 2 tablespoons Pickled Ginger (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them into a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice. This will be your keto rice substitute.

Step 2

Place the cauliflower rice in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and microwave on high for 5 minutes until tender.

Step 3

Once cooled, place the cauliflower rice in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out excess moisture.

Step 4

Transfer the cauliflower rice into a bowl and stir in the rice vinegar. Mix well to evenly coat the rice.

Step 5

Slice the cream cheese into long, thin strips. Peel the cucumber and slice it into long, thin matchsticks.

Step 6

On a sushi rolling mat, place a sheet of nori with the shiny side facing down.

Step 7

Spread an even layer of cauliflower rice over the nori, leaving an inch on one side to seal the roll.

Step 8

Place a strip of cream cheese, a few pieces of smoked salmon, and cucumber strips along the edge of the rice on the nori.

Step 9

Carefully lift the edge of the rolling mat closest to you, and begin rolling the sushi, ensuring you press gently to form a tight roll.

Step 10

Once rolled, moisten the edge of the nori with a bit of water to seal the roll.

Step 11

Sprinkle sesame seeds on a flat surface and roll the sushi roll over them to coat the exposed rice with sesame seeds.

Step 12

Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into six to eight equal pieces.

Step 13

Serve the Keto Philadelphia Roll with soy sauce or tamari, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side if desired.
