Roll with shrimp, avocado and cream cheese - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute the shrimp with another protein?

Yes, cooked crab meat, imitation crab (surimi), or even smoked salmon work well as shrimp alternatives in this roll.

How long can I store the assembled rolls in the fridge?

Store tightly wrapped in plastic for up to 24 hours, but enjoy fresh for best texture—the nori softens over time.

Is there a vegetarian version of this recipe?

Omit shrimp and add cucumber, asparagus, or marinated tofu for crunch and protein to keep it vegetarian-friendly.

Any tips for preventing the avocado from browning?

Lightly brush avocado pieces with lemon or lime juice before assembling—the acid slows oxidation.

Can I make this recipe low-carb?

Replace rice with thinly sliced cucumber or cauliflower rice for a lower-carb option.

How can I make the rolls easier to slice cleanly?

Dip your knife in water before each cut and wipe it clean to prevent sticking and achieve neat portions.

Can I freeze these rolls for later?

Freezing isn’t recommended—the avocado and cream cheese textures degrade. Enjoy them fresh.

What sides pair well with shrimp avocado rolls?

Serve with pickled ginger, wasabi, soy sauce, or a light miso soup for a balanced meal.
