Ingredients

• 4 sheets nori sheets
• 1 can (5 ounces) canned tuna (in water, drained)
• 1 medium avocado
• 0.5 medium cucumber
• 1 medium carrot
• 2 tablespoons paleo mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the tuna filling: In a bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, paleo mayonnaise, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.

Step 2

Slice the vegetables: Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin, matchstick-sized strips. Slice the avocado into thin slices.

Step 3

Lay a nori sheet on a clean, dry surface or a bamboo sushi mat if available, shiny side down.

Step 4

Spread 1/4 of the tuna mixture evenly across the lower third of the nori sheet.

Step 5

Layer a few slices of cucumber, carrot, and avocado on top of the tuna mixture.

Step 6

Using your hands or the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori sheet tightly over the filling. Roll until the nori seals itself. You may dampen the edge with a little water to help it stick.

Step 7

Repeat the process for the remaining nori sheets and fillings.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife dipped in water, slice each roll into bite-sized pieces.

Step 9

Serve immediately with optional paleo-friendly dipping sauces like coconut aminos, if desired.
