• 1 pound ahi tuna, sushi-grade*
• ¼ cup tamari
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp rice vinegar
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
• 1 avocado, diced

Spicy sauce

• 1 cup mayonnaise (preferably homemade)
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• ½ tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ tablespoon smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons water (or more if it is too thick)
• ½ tablespoon raw honey (optional)

Instructions

• Garnish with microgreens or sprouts, drizzle with spicy sauce and sprinkle with white and black sesame seeds.
