Ingredients

  • 1 can (5 ounces) canned tuna (in water, drained)

  • 2 sheets nori seaweed sheets
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 0.25 teaspoon sea salt

Step 1

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 6

6. Place a few slices of avocado, cucumber, and carrot sticks on top of the tuna mixture.

Step 7

7. Carefully roll the nori sheet tightly from the bottom edge to the top edge. Use a small amount of water to seal the roll at the end.

Step 8

8. Repeat the process with the second nori sheet and remaining ingredients.

Step 9

9. Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. If desired, sprinkle black sesame seeds on top for garnish.
