One of the things that I've been really missing since ditching the carbs is Sushi!
There's this amazing sushi place right by my house and they have this Ahi salad. Basically a bunch of spinach topped with raw Ahi and some dressing. Well one day I Asked them if they could turn one of their rolls into a salad for me! She must have not quite understood because instead of a salad with the toppings she gave me a roll with spinach instead of rice! Soooo good!!! And I just recreated my own! So satisfying!!!!
I'll be making this a lot for sure!!

    Looks great. Probably tastes a lot better than the ones covered in seaweed too!

    Nice!! I'm definitely going to try that. My sushi place back in the states did low carb rolls rolled up with cucumber as the outer layer. I love nori, its my go-to low carb wrap.
  • I know it's such a simple swap but I was honestly blown away haha
    I did one sheet of nori, bunch of spinach then either salmon or krab, cucumber and cream cheese. Soooo good! I also topped one roll with sriracha ahi. Delicious!!

    I miss sushi so much - and temaki even more! I tried riced cauliflower but it really isn't the same.

    I use nori for all kind of sushi-like wraps: iceberg+cucumber+fresh coriander+hard cheese and raw spinach+avocado+spinach sauté with sesame seeds are my favourite. A bit weird but they work for me.

    But I'm yet to find a low carb equivalent to the taste of warm rice+raw veggies+crunchy nori. I'll keep trying though! Thanks for giving me a new idea! :)

    In this version, I used leftover baked wild salmon, cucumber, avocado and cream cheese. Spinach sounds like a good idea too.

    A prawn /shrimp hand roll is easy and yummy. Prawn, avocado, cucumber rolled on the diagonal to make a cone from the nori with the ingredients inside. I also make with salmon or tuna and would use crab if it was in season here.
