  1. 1

    Put the water and rice in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to low, and simmer until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Take off the heat, stir in the vinegar and salt, and let cool for at least 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap to prevent sticking. Lay one nori sheet on top of the plastic. Spread the rice evenly over the nori, leaving about 1/2 inch uncovered at the bottom. Arrange the cucumber and avocado across the center of the rice. Lift the mat, roll over the cucumber and avocado once, and press down. Unroll, then roll again toward the uncovered end of the nori to form a long roll. Seal the roll with a little water if needed. Repeat to make the remaining rolls.

  3. 3

    Slice each roll into 6 pieces with a sharp, wet knife.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
