kcalSushi cravings while on the keto diet are a real challenge. While sashimi is still fair game, getting the experience of a sushi roll without rice is often difficult at most restaurants. Make your own with this simple recipe that has all the flavors of your favorite sushi. Serve with pickled ginger and low-carb soy sauce.
Ingredients
14 ounces smoked salmon
1 tbsp wasabi paste (optional)
3/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 2 avocado, sliced
1 tbsp sesame seeds
Directions
- On a cutting board, lay out a large piece of plastic wrap.
- Place the salmon pieces on the plastic wrap, overlapping, to create a large rectangle 6 to 7 inches long and 4 inches wide.
- In a small bowl, mix together the wasabi paste (if using) and the cream cheese.
- Spread the cream cheese evenly over the entire smoked salmon rectangle.
- Arrange the avocado over the cream cheese, in the center of the rectangle.
- Grabbing the plastic wrap at one end, lift and carefully begin to roll the salmon. Hold the plastic wrap tightly over the roll as you go to apply pressure to hold it together.
- Unwrap the plastic wrap from the sushi roll.
- Cover the sushi roll in sesame seeds, patting them into the outer layer.
- Refrigerate the roll for 15 to 20 minutes.
- With a very sharp knife, slice into pieces and serve.
