Sushi is already a good choice. But what if you want to cut carbs? No, you don’t have to give up sushi. That’s what Foodpunk sushi is for!
Low carb sushi without rice works, and it tastes great! It is also paleo-friendly, gluten-free and (without the red bell pepper, see nutrition facts) won’t kick you out of ketosis.

Instructions
First, make the cauliflower rice.
Wash the cauliflower and divide both heads into florets. Put a handful of florets into a food processor and pulse until you have rice-sized pieces. That’s your cauliflower rice, your low carb rice.
Heat the coconut oil in a pot, add the cauliflower rice and steam it over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring regularly. Season with sea salt and rice vinegar (or apple cider or coconut vinegar).
Wash the cucumber and bell pepper and cut them into very thin strips. These vegetables are great for paleo. If you want to eat even lower carb, leave out the bell pepper. For LCHF or keto sushi, replace the pepper with more avocado.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit and peel it. Cut it into thin slices and halve them lengthwise. Avocado contains plenty of valuable fatty acids, vitamins and trace elements.
Have all the prepared ingredients ready. Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat.
Moisten the nori sheet lightly and spread a thin layer of cauliflower rice over it, leaving the top third free. Add your fillings and roll it up very tightly. Trim the ends, cut the roll into 6 pieces and serve.
Instead of soy sauce I recommend coconut aminos, which you can order online. When buying wasabi, make sure it has no additives.
For LCHF or keto sushi you can mix the coconut aminos with MCT oil and dip the low carb sushi into it.
