Ingredients
2 medium zucchini
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 tsp. Sriracha hot sauce
1 tsp. lime juice
1 c. lump crab meat
1/2 carrot, cut into thin matchsticks
1/2 avocado, diced
1/2 cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
1 tsp.Toasted sesame seeds
Directions
- Using a vegetable peeler, slice each zucchini into thin flat strips. Place zucchini on paper towel–lined plate to sit while you prep the rest of your ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, Sriracha, and lime juice.
- On a cutting board, lay 2 zucchini slices down horizontally (so that the long side is facing you). Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on top, then top the left side with a pinch each of crab, carrot, avocado, and cucumber.
- Starting from the left side, tightly roll up zucchini. Repeat with the remaining zucchini slices and fillings. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
