Break the cauliflower into florets and place in a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a skillet over medium heat. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly cooked and tender.
Add the coconut aminos and rice vinegar to the cooked cauliflower rice, mixing well. Set aside to cool.
Slice the fresh tuna into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
Peel and slice the avocado into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber and slice it lengthwise into thin strips.
Chop the scallions into fine pieces.
Place one nori sheet on a sushi mat, shiny side down.
Spread a thin, even layer of the cooled cauliflower rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge uncovered.
Arrange strips of tuna, avocado, cucumber, and scallions horizontally across the center of the rice.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the filling, tucking in the ingredients until a roll forms. Wet the top edge of the nori sheet to seal the roll.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients to create four rolls in total.
Slice each roll into 6 to 8 pieces using a sharp knife.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
Enjoy your Whole30 Avocado and Fish Sushi Roll with some extra coconut aminos for dipping, if desired.
