Description
Enjoy a fresh, keto-friendly twist on traditional sushi with these Low Carb Sushi Rolls, featuring cauliflower rice or cream cheese as a rice substitute for a light, flavorful meal or snack.
Ingredients
Sushi Rolls Ingredients
- 4 nori sheets
- 1 cup cauliflower rice (or cream cheese spread)
- ½ avocado, sliced
- ½ cucumber, julienned
- 4 oz smoked salmon or crab sticks
- Soy sauce or tamari for dipping
Instructions
- Prepare the base: Spread cauliflower rice evenly over each nori sheet, covering the surface to create a rice substitute layer.
- Add fillings: Layer smoked salmon, avocado slices, and julienned cucumber near one edge of the nori sheet for easy rolling.
- Roll the sushi: Use a bamboo sushi mat to tightly roll the nori sheet around the fillings, forming a compact roll.
- Slice the rolls: With a sharp knife, cut each roll into 6 to 8 equal pieces, ensuring clean slices without squashing the roll.
- Serve: Arrange sushi pieces on a plate and serve with soy sauce or tamari and optional pickled ginger or wasabi.
Notes
- Use a damp towel to keep nori sheets pliable and easy to roll.
- Add a dab of wasabi inside the roll or on the side for a spicy kick.
- For cream cheese filling, spread evenly instead of cauliflower rice as a low carb option.
- Keep knife clean and wet to make cleaner cuts without sticking.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
