INGREDIENTS

6 oz Fresh Salmon Fillet

1/4 medium Avocado

1/3 cup cooked Sushi Rice

1 Nori Seaweed Sheet

1/4 medium Cucumber

1 tsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce

PREPARATION

• 1

  Begin by rinsing the cucumber and slicing it into thin matchsticks. Cut the avocado into thin slices, and set aside.

• 2

  Using a sharp knife, slice the salmon fillet into long, thin strips. For added flavor, lightly season the salmon with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.

• 3

  Prepare the sushi rice if not already done. Once cooked, let the rice cool slightly to a warm room temperature.

• 4

  Lay the nori sheet shiny side down on a clean surface. Spread the cooled sushi rice evenly across the nori, leaving a small strip at the top edge free of rice to help with sealing.

• 5

  Place a few strips of salmon across the center of the rice-covered nori. Layer on the avocado slices and cucumber matchsticks on top of the salmon.

• 6

  Drizzle a teaspoon of low-sodium soy sauce over the fillings for an extra kick of umami.

• 7

  Carefully roll the nori starting from the edge closest to you, using your fingertips to tuck the ingredients in as you roll. Continue rolling tightly until you reach the free edge, then moisten that edge with a little water to help seal the roll.

• 8

  Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces and serve immediately.
