Ingredients

• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 2 cups Cauliflower rice
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 medium Carrot
• 1 large Avocado
• 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar (optional, paleo-compliant)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the cauliflower rice by steaming it lightly or microwaving it for 2 minutes to soften. Allow it to cool completely before use.

Step 2

Optional: Mix the cooled cauliflower rice with 1 teaspoon of rice vinegar and a pinch of sea salt to replicate the mild tang of sushi rice.

Step 3

Slice the cucumber and carrot into thin matchstick-sized strips.

Step 4

Slice the avocado into thin slices.

Step 5

Lay a nori sheet, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat or a flat surface.

Step 6

Spread about 1/2 cup of cauliflower rice evenly over the nori sheet, leaving about an inch at the top edge of the sheet uncovered for sealing.

Step 7

Arrange cucumber, carrot, and avocado slices horizontally across the center of the cauliflower rice layer.

Step 8

Using the sushi mat or your hands, carefully roll the nori sheet over the filling, pressing gently but firmly to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a touch of water.

Step 9

Repeat this process with the remaining nori sheets, cauliflower rice, and fillings.

Step 10

Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the rolls for added texture and flavor.

Step 11

Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6-8 even pieces. Serve immediately with coconut aminos for dipping.
