Ingredients

  • 1 lb sushi-grade tuna, salmon, or tofu (cubed)
  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice or brown rice
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup radishes, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup edamame (shelled)
  • 1/4 cup carrots, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon green onions, chopped
  • Optional toppings: spicy mayo, sriracha, pickled ginger, seaweed salad, wasabi

Instructions

Cook the sushi rice or brown rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly.

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, and grated ginger. Place the cubed tuna, salmon, or tofu in a bowl and pour the marinade over the top. Toss gently to coat and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to marinate.
  2. While the fish is marinating, slice the cucumber, radishes, and avocado. Shred the carrots and set them aside with the edamame.
  3. Divide the rice among bowls. Arrange the marinated fish or tofu, cucumber, avocado, radishes, edamame, and carrots on top of the rice.
  4. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top. Add any optional toppings such as spicy mayo, sriracha, or seaweed salad.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh, delicious poke bowl!

Notes

  1. For a heartier meal, add protein like grilled chicken or shrimp.
  2. For a vegan option, replace the fish with tofu or tempeh.
  3. To make it spicy, drizzle spicy mayo or sriracha on top.
  4. For a low-carb version, substitute rice with cauliflower rice or quinoa.
  5. Leftovers can be stored separately in an airtight container for up to 24 hours, but it’s best to assemble the bowls fresh.
