Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Sandwich bread (white, whole wheat, or gluten-free)
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 4 slices Cooked deli-style ham or turkey
- 0.5 whole Cucumber
- 1 small Carrot
- 1 whole Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (optional for dipping)
Instructions
Lay out the slices of sandwich bread on a clean cutting board. Using a rolling pin, gently flatten each slice to make it more pliable.
Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese evenly across the surface of each bread slice.
Peel and julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips. Cut the avocado into thin slices as well.
Place one slice of ham or turkey on top of the cream cheese on each bread slice.
Add a few julienned strips of cucumber and carrot, along with a couple of avocado slices, towards one end of the bread slice. Be sure not to overfill.
Starting from the end where you placed the vegetables and avocado, gently and tightly roll up the bread slice into a log shape.
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice each roll into 4-5 bite-sized pieces to resemble sushi rolls.
Optional: Serve with a small dish of soy sauce for dipping, or enjoy as-is for a fun and flavorful snack.
