- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 medium red bell pepper

Start by slicing the fresh salmon fillet into thin strips. Set aside.
Peel and slice the cucumber into long, thin strips and set aside.
Pit, peel, and slice the avocado into thin strips.

Squeeze a small amount of lime juice over the filling in the nori sheet.
