Zucchini Sushi
These zesty bite-sized morsels evoke the flavors of a California roll, yet without the rice. They're even fresher, simpler to prepare, and packed with nutritional benefits. It's a triple win!
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp. Sriracha hot sauce
- 1 tsp. lime juice
- 1 c. lump crab meat
- 1/2 carrot, cut into thin matchsticks
- 1/2 avocado, diced
- 1/2 cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
- 1 tsp. Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Using a vegetable peeler, slice each zucchini into thin flat strips. Place zucchini on paper towel–lined plate to sit while you prep the rest of your ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, Sriracha, and lime juice.
- On a cutting board, lay 2 zucchini slices down horizontally (so that the long side is facing you). Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on top, then top the left side with a pinch each of crab, carrot, avocado, and cucumber.
- Starting from the left side, tightly roll up zucchini. Repeat with the remaining zucchini slices and fillings. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
