- ½ cup shredded carrots
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 medium avocado optional

Instructions
- Start by making the rice. I like to make the rice in the Instant Pot. Rinse the rice, add it to the instant pot with fresh water. Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes, let the pressure naturally release 5 minutes then manually release the pressure.1 cup jasmine rice, 1.25 cups water
- While the rice is cooking, combine the coconut aminos, ricewine vinegar and sesame oil in a bowl large enough to add the veggies to.3 tablespoons coconut aminos, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- Slice the cucumber and shred the carrots. Add the veggies tothe bowl with the coconut aminos. Stir well and let soak until rice is donecooking.½ medium English cucumber, ½ cup shredded carrots
- Cut the smoked salmon into cubes. Slice the avocado and prepareany of the other veggies you might be adding.4 oz smoked salmon
- When the rice is done cooking, divide it between the bowls and top with the marinated veggies and smoked salmon cubes. Top with avocado, pickled ginger and any other toppings or ingredients you love. Pour the rest of the marinade over the bowls for more flavor.1 medium avocado, pickled ginger
Notes
Top tips
- Don't soak the cucumbers if you're meal prepping. Pack the cucumber and sauce separately and combine them just before serving. The salt in the sauce will soften the cucumbers over time.
- Use any cooked rice. Sushi rice isn't necessary here. Jasmine, basmati, brown rice, frozen cooked rice, or microwave-ready rice all work well.
- Use pre-shredded carrots. Store-bought shredded carrots are a great shortcut, but you can also grate your own if needed.
