Keto Smoked Salmon & Avocado Sushi Rolls (low-carb, grain-free, paleo)

These sushi rolls are perfect for busy days and lunchboxes. You'll only need 5 ingredients and 5 minutes to make them from scratch!

You won't need any rice or even cauliflower rice because we are keeping these super simple. One serving will be enough for a light lunch/snack, and double or triple the amount will be best for a full meal.

You can serve these as they are or with some Sugar-Free Pickled Ginger, tamari sauce (or coconut aminos) and wasabi paste.

Step-by-step

  1. Cut the nori in half. Slice the smoked salmon, avocado, cucumber and bell pepper into long matchsticks.

  2. Place the smoked salmon on the matte side of the nori and add the avocado, cucumber and bell pepper.

  3. Roll up tightly. You can do this with or without a bamboo mat which is typically best to use if you're making large rolls such as these Keto Spicy Salmon Sushi Rolls. Cut each roll in half to get a total of 4 mini rolls.

  5. These are best eaten fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to a day.

    Very simple recipe! Even though no rice, the roll tastes very similar to a regular maki! I used some sesame seeds on top and served with wasabi!

      Thank you, glad you enjoyed! 😊

    Looks like a winner! I so miss sushi and this has everything but the rice/carbs. Wonder if shredded 'angel hair' cabbage (maybe salted to wilt a bit, then dried well with paper towels) would add some of the softness and texture balance missing from no rice. You have inspired me to give that a try with this great low carb version/

      That's an interesting idea, I'll have to give it a go! I usually use cauliflower rice, or cauliflower rice mixed with some shirataki rice. I would not use shirataki rice on its own as it may taste too rubbery. Here is a recipe that uses cauliflower rice: California Keto Sushi Burrito (you can add stickiness by adding either mayonnaise or cream cheese).
