Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Remove the stems from a medium head of cauliflower and chop it into manageable pieces.
Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until it reaches a rice-like consistency. Do this in batches if needed.
Transfer the cauliflower 'rice' to a microwave-safe bowl, cover with a lid or plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 6 minutes.
Allow the cauliflower to cool slightly, then add 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar and 0.5 teaspoon of salt, mixing well to season the 'rice'. Set aside.
Slice the sushi-grade salmon and tuna into thin, even strips.
Julienne the cucumber into long thin strips after peeling and removing seeds if desired.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin, long pieces.
Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface, and lay one sheet of nori, shiny side down, on the mat.
Evenly spread a thin layer of the cauliflower rice over the nori sheet, leaving about an inch clear at the top edge.
Horizontally arrange a combination of salmon, tuna, cucumber, and avocado strips across the cauliflower rice, about an inch from the bottom edge.
Sprinkle a small amount of fish roe over the arrangement of ingredients.
Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly from the bottom edge to the top, sealing with a bit of water on the exposed nori edge.
Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
Once all rolls are prepared, use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.
Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
