Ingredients

• 1 cup cauliflower rice
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/2 avocado, sliced
• 4 oz cooked shrimp, sliced in half lengthwise
• 1/4 cup diced mango
• 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
• 1/4 cup diced cucumber

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, rice vinegar, and cilantro. Mix well and set aside.

Cooking Tips and Tricks

• For a different twist, try using thinly sliced steak or grilled chicken instead of shrimp.
• To make the cauliflower rice stick together better, pulse it in a food processor before mixing with the vinegar and cilantro.
• If you prefer a spicier kick, leave the jalapeno seeds in for an extra punch of heat.
• To save time, prep all your ingredients in advance and set up an assembly line for rolling the sushi.

Photography Tips

When photographing your spicy Latin fusion sushi rolls, try using natural lighting to capture the vibrant colors of the dish. Play around with different angles and perspectives to create visually appealing images. If you have a macro lens, use it to highlight the details of the ingredients.
