Veggie Rolls-My New Favorite Lunch

Veggie Rolls
2 Nori wrapper
Leftover brown rice
1/4 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
2 slices of smoked tempeh
1/2 carrot, sliced into thin stalks
1/4 cucumber, sliced into thin stalks
toasted sesame seeds
real sea salt

Place sesame seeds, 1 nori wrapper and sea salt to taste in blender. Pulse until nori sheet is broken down some and sesame seeds pop open. Store in airtight container.
Cook tempeh in small amount of coconut oil until brown and cooked through. Spread nori wrapper out and put a thin layer of rice on 2/3 of it, end to end. In the middle of the rice, place avocado, carrot, cucumber and tempeh. Sprinkle with sesame seeds mixture. Roll up and seal wrapper with water. Let sit for a few minutes for the wrapper to soften, and then slice into "sushi" shaped rolls. Delicious!
