Ingredients

• 8 ounces Fresh salmon
• 1 large Avocado
• 2 large Cucumber
• 3 sheets Nori sheets
• 3 tablespoons Whole30-compliant mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Wasabi (optional)

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by preparing the salmon. Ensure it is skinless, and cut it into thin, even slices approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

2. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully peel away the skin. Slice the avocado into thin strips.

Step 3

3. Use a vegetable peeler or mandoline slicer to create long, thin strips of cucumber. Aim for strips that are about 1/16 inch thick to ensure they are flexible enough for rolling.

Step 4

4. In a small bowl, mix Whole30-compliant mayonnaise with lime juice and salt. This will serve as your Whole30-approved spicy mayo.

Step 5

5. Lay a nori sheet flat on a cutting board. Spread a thin layer of the spicy mayo mixture evenly over the nori, leaving a 1/2 inch border at one end.

Step 6

6. Place a few strips of salmon and avocado along one edge of the nori.

Step 7

7. Place a cucumber strip at the edge of the nori over the salmon and avocado filling.

Step 8

8. Carefully roll the nori sheet tightly towards the border that has no filling, using light pressure to shape it into a round sushi roll.

Step 9

9. Once rolled, let it sit for a minute to seal, then slice into bite-sized pieces.

Step 10

10. Repeat these steps with the remaining nori sheets, salmon, avocado, and cucumber.

Step 11

11. Serve immediately with optional wasabi for an extra kick.
