I love cauliflower, but I don't want it anywhere near anything as great as sushi!

Anybody have any ideas?

    I often make spicy prawn hand rolls.

    Here's my recipe:
    150 g large prawns, chopped
    1 tbsp Mayo
    1/2 tbsp Sriracha
    1/2 medium avocado, sliced
    3 half sheets nori

    Mix the prawns, Mayo & Sriracha, salt & pepper to taste. Scoop 1/2 mixture onto the left side of a half sheet of nori, add 1-2 slices avocado and roll it up like a cone, starting diagonally from the lower left corner. Makes three rolls.

    You could add some cucumber and/or daikon radish too if you wanted some crunch and had the carbs to spare.

    And my crab hand roll recipe:

    115 g fresh crab meat
    2 tbsp Mayo
    1/2 medium avocado, diced small
    1/4 cup celery, diced in tiny pieces
    1 Spring onion, chopped finely
    Salt & pepper to taste
    3 1/2 sheets of nori

    Just mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and scoop 1/3 mixture onto the nori, same method as the prawn rolls above. Makes 3 hand rolls.

    Oh, and I was going to add that you could toss in some hot sauce to spice it up or some mustard for a tangy taste.

    I make hand rolls with these ingredients, minus the horseradish as that's not my kind of spicy, I like the kick in my throat, not my nose lol.

    I just lay pieces of smoked salmon, 1 tbsp cream cheese, a slice or two of avocado and a sliver of cucumber on a 1/2 sheet of nori and roll into a cone.

    Yeah, cones are far easier to make.

    Here's a couple that I found recently that I plan on trying soon:

    http://lowcarbcentral.com.au/low-carb-recipes/low-carb-meals/low-carb-lunch/low-carb-sushi-rolls/

    Re the Australian low carb central recipe, I plan on swapping out "LF Sweet White" for preferred sugar substitute equivalent and swapping out the salmon with crab because I am just not a fan of salmon.

    http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/california-roll-recipe.html

    Re the Alton Brown food network recipes, I plan on making the following substitutions: Swap rice for miracle rice; and Swap sugar for preferred sugar substitute equivalent.

    I also plan on adding Masago (seasoned smelt roe) to each recipe because I quite like it.

    I thought I had printed up and brought home at least one more sushi recipe but I can't seem to find it for the life of me right now.

    Careful with the imitation crab, it's pretty high in carbs, many of which are sugar. I love it, probably because the sugar makes it taste so good lol, but for me it spikes my blood sugar, and it doesn't work anymore for my macros.

    What is miracle rice?

    Shirataki noodles (not a true pasta) just cut up into small bite-size pieces of "rice."

    Oh, I agree totally...I don't use imitation crab...I use real crab. I just forgot to mention it when I posted the links to recipes because I'm so used to just automatically subbing in the better choice of real crab meat. lol
