In a small skillet, lightly toast the cauliflower rice over medium heat for 5 minutes until slightly tender and moisture has evaporated. Transfer to a bowl and let it cool completely.
Once the cauliflower rice has cooled, mix in the cream cheese, rice vinegar, and salt. Stir until the mixture becomes sticky and resembles sushi rice.
Prepare your fillings by slicing the avocado and cucumber into thin strips.
Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi rolling mat or a sheet of plastic wrap on a clean surface.
Spread half of the cauliflower rice mixture evenly over the nori sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top edge of the nori for sealing the roll.
Place half of the tuna, avocado slices, and cucumber strips along the bottom edge of the rice-covered nori.
Using the bamboo mat or plastic wrap, carefully roll the sushi tightly, starting from the bottom and rolling upward. Press gently to shape the roll as you go.
Dampen the top edge of the nori with a little water to seal the roll. Repeat with the second nori sheet and remaining ingredients.
Once both rolls are complete, use a sharp knife to cut each roll into 6-8 bite-sized pieces. Wipe the knife blade with a damp cloth between cuts for cleaner slices.
Optional: Sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish.
Serve immediately with soy sauce or coconut aminos for dipping.
