It’s such a cliché to act all surprised at the end of November that the year is almost gone, but 2013 has been swift, even the kids think so and that says a lot!

Now, exactly a month from today we will be watching the cricket , eating leftovers and reminiscing with family and friends about the year just gone by. And just as eagerly we’ll all be dreaming up plans for the new year ahead. But before that time is upon us, I thought I’d share this quick recipe that’s great for getting a nutritious feed during the busiest 30 days of the year. And, it’s actually quite easy to do. So, how does this Rice-free (Paleo and grain-free) Nori Roll work?

Almost exactly a year ago, I posted this ever so-obvious-yet-clever Quinoa Sushi Roll recipe, because I have never been a big fan of rice. The recipe is great if you have some spare cooked quinoa lying around in your fridge, which in itself is not that bad of an idea, or if you have time to cook it. where can i buy smoked eelBut being a busy homemaker, home-front construction project manager, blogger, writer, photographer, school-picker-upper and so forth, I don’t always have a spare half an hour to follow this step.sushi restaurants in dubai delivery Instead, I layer my nori sheet with one or two lettuce leaves. sushi jersey city yelpThey can hold the fillings in well in case the nori sheet breaks. buy salmon sashimi singapore

I also like the idea of a quick barbecue chicken roll with a salad of avocado and raw sliced broccoli – again, with the focus on greens. Or even leftover cooked fish or mince – something like Chilli Con Carne, would also be fab! Oh, and one more thing.

Assembling these Tuna Salad Nori Wraps is a breeze. Just place a bit of tuna salad mix on top. I found that a flat layer on the bottom ⅔ of the wrap works best. Add sliced carrots, cucumber and avocado (or anything else you’d like) on top. Then carefully roll up diagonally from the bottom into a cone shape. Make sure it’s tight and you tuck the edge of the nori wrap under securely. If the wrap is a bit dry and doesn’t roll well, a trick is to slightly dampen with a wet paper towel. Flavor profiles: Fresh tuna taste with hint of coconut and tangy lemon juice. Paired with creamy avocado and slightly salty seaweed nori wraps. Texture: Firm yet tender tuna paired with crunchy fresh veggies.
