Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 1 can (5 oz) Canned tuna in water
- 1 Avocado
- 4 Nori sheets
- 0.5 Cucumber
- 1 Carrot
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
Directions
Step 1
1. Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Remove the core and cut the cauliflower into florets. Place the florets in a food processor, and pulse until the texture resembles rice. Do this in batches if needed to prevent overcrowding.
Step 2
2. Transfer the cauliflower rice to a large mixing bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to combine. Set aside.
Step 3
3. Drain the canned tuna and place it into another mixing bowl. Use a fork to break up any large chunks.
Step 4
4. Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the bowl with the tuna. Mash together until smooth, adding any additional salt and pepper to taste if desired.
Step 5
5. Cut the cucumber and carrot into long, thin strips. Set aside to use as fillings.
Step 6
6. Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat or clean kitchen towel, shiny side down.
Step 7
7. Spread approximately 1/4 cup of the prepared cauliflower rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch of the top edge free of rice.
Step 8
8. Near the bottom edge, place a few strips of cucumber and carrot along with a generous line of the tuna-avocado mixture.
Step 9
9. Starting from the edge closest to you, use the bamboo matt or towel to tightly roll up the nori, securing the filling as you go. Once you reach the end, moisten the clear edge with water to seal the roll.
Step 10
10. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to keep it clean.
Step 11
11. Repeat steps 6-10 with the remaining ingredients to make a total of 4 rolls.
Step 12
12. Serve the sushi rolls immediately with coconut aminos for dipping. Enjoy your Whole30 Avocado Tuna Sushi Rolls!
