Ingredients

• 8 ounces fresh salmon fillet
• 4 Nori seaweed sheets
• 2 cups cauliflower rice
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 2 tablespoons whole30-approved mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon sriracha (Whole30-compliant)
• 1 tablespoon green onion, finely sliced
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 0.5 cucumber, julienned
• 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (optional, Whole30-compliant)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the cauliflower rice. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower rice is tender. Remove from heat and stir in salt and rice vinegar (if using). Let it cool completely.

Step 2

While the cauliflower rice cools, prepare the spicy salmon mixture. Using a sharp knife, finely dice the salmon fillet into small cubes. In a small bowl, mix the diced salmon with Whole30-approved mayonnaise and sriracha. Stir well to coat evenly. Set aside.

Step 3

Lay out a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi rolling mat, shiny side facing down. Spread an even layer of the cooled cauliflower rice over the nori sheet, leaving a 1-inch border at the top edge.

Step 4

Arrange a small amount of spicy salmon mixture in a straight line across the center of the cauliflower rice. Add sliced avocado, julienned cucumber, and a sprinkle of green onion on top of the salmon.

Step 5

Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori sheet up and over the filling, pressing gently but firmly to create a tight roll. Seal the roll by moistening the uncovered edge of nori with a small amount of water and pressing to secure.

Step 6

Repeat the process for the remaining ingredients, making a total of four rolls.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between slices to ensure clean cuts.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle the sliced sushi rolls with toasted sesame seeds for extra flavor and texture.

Step 9

Serve immediately with a side of coconut aminos for dipping. Enjoy your Whole30 Spicy Salmon Roll!
