About Cooked salmon avocado sushi roll

A cooked salmon avocado sushi roll is a Japanese-inspired dish combining cooked salmon, creamy avocado, seasoned sushi rice, and seaweed (nori). Originating from Japan, sushi has become a global favorite due to its light, balanced flavors and nutritious ingredients. This roll is a rich source of high-quality protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. Cooked salmon provides essential omega-3 fatty acids, while avocado is packed with monounsaturated fats, fiber, and potassium. Typical serving sizes are low in calories but supply an array of micronutrients including selenium, vitamin B6, and magnesium. The inclusion of vinegared rice ensures a small boost of quick energy, making it a balanced and delicious choice for meals or snacks.

Health Benefits

• Rich in omega-3 fatty acids from cooked salmon, which support heart health and brain function.
• Avocado contains potassium, a mineral that aids in maintaining healthy blood pressure levels.
• Selenium in salmon supports immune health and thyroid function.
• Vitamin B6 from salmon assists in energy metabolism and red blood cell production.
• Dietary fiber from avocado promotes digestive health and may help lower cholesterol levels.

Selection and Storage

Consume the sushi roll as soon as possible after preparation for the best taste and food safety. If necessary, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but avoid prolonged storage to prevent the rice and avocado from drying out.

Common Questions About Cooked salmon avocado sushi roll Nutrition

How many calories and protein are in a cooked salmon avocado sushi roll?

A typical cooked salmon avocado sushi roll contains approximately 200-300 calories and provides around 8-12 grams of protein per 6-piece serving. The exact values depend on the portion size, how much salmon and avocado are used, and the type of rice included.

Is a cooked salmon avocado sushi roll suitable for a keto or low-carb diet?

Cooked salmon avocado sushi rolls are generally not ideal for keto or strict low-carb diets due to the white rice, which is high in carbohydrates. A single roll can contain 25-35 grams of carbs. For a keto-friendly option, you could request a roll made with cauliflower rice or enjoy the fish and avocado without rice.

What are the health benefits of eating a cooked salmon avocado sushi roll?

These sushi rolls combine nutrient-rich ingredients. Cooked salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, while avocado provides healthy monounsaturated fats and fiber. However, be mindful of sodium content from soy sauce and any added sauces.

How many cooked salmon avocado sushi rolls should I eat in one meal?

A serving size of one or two rolls (6-12 pieces total) is generally recommended for a balanced meal, depending on your caloric needs. Pairing sushi with a miso soup or seaweed salad can provide additional nutrients and balance.

How does a cooked salmon avocado sushi roll compare to a raw salmon roll or other sushi options?

Cooked salmon rolls are ideal for those who prefer not to eat raw fish, but they may have a slightly lower omega-3 content due to the cooking process. Compared to other sushi, they are moderately higher in fat due to the avocado but are generally similar in protein and calorie content to raw salmon rolls.
