If you love Asian cuisine as much as me, check out the first recipe from my weekend of Asian recipes. I made this delicious Cashew Chicken by recreating Matt and my favorite dish from San Francisco.
I love exploring a cuisine. I’ve found that if I dedicate a few weeks or months to 1 type of cuisine I can gain a much better understanding of how all the flavors work and come out with a handful of really sensational dishes. This keto sushi was created out of necessity though. When you have that craving for sushi there is nothing that can fill the void.

First layer the avocado on the rice on the edge closest to you. Next, add layer the cream cheese directly onto the avocado and then same with the cucumber.

Lift the plastic wrap edge closet to you while using your hands to cover the ingredients (so they don't move/fall).
Slowly roll the plastic wrap and nori wrapper around the avocado, cream cheese and cucumber until you've rolled the entire thing.
**Make sure you don't roll the plastic wrap into the sushi. As you're rolling you want to slowly edge the wrap off the nori**
Using a very sharp knife slice the sushi into 8 pieces. TIP: Start in the middle so the rice doesn't get pushed out by the pressure of the knife.
