Ingredients

• 2 cups Cauliflower rice
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 4 sheets Nori seaweed sheets
• 6 ounces Fresh tuna
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha
• 1 small Cucumber
• 1 medium Avocado
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce or coconut aminos (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Steam the cauliflower rice for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Let it cool, then mix in the cream cheese and rice vinegar to create a sticky texture. Set aside.

Step 2

Dice the fresh tuna into small cubes and place it in a bowl. In another small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and sriracha to create the spicy mayo sauce.

Step 3

Combine the diced tuna with half of the spicy mayo sauce. Reserve the other half for drizzling on top or serving as a dipping sauce.

Step 4

Julienne the cucumber and thinly slice the avocado for the filling.

Step 5

Place one nori sheet shiny-side down on a clean, flat surface or sushi mat. Spread a thin, even layer of the cauliflower rice mixture over the nori sheet, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge uncovered.

Step 6

Add a line of the spicy tuna mixture, cucumber strips, and avocado slices across the center of the nori sheet.

Step 7

Carefully roll the sushi using the mat, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Seal the edge of the nori by lightly dampening it with water.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.

Step 9

Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. Clean the blade between cuts to maintain clean edges.

Step 10

Sprinkle sesame seeds over the sliced sushi rolls. Serve with the reserved spicy mayo and soy sauce or coconut aminos on the side.
