Description

Enjoy the fresh flavors of a poke-inspired salad bowl with sushi-grade tuna, jasmine rice, and a delicious sesame dressing. This colorful and nutritious bowl is easy to assemble and perfect for a light meal.


Ingredients

Jasmine Rice Base:

  • 1 cup cooked jasmine rice or sushi rice (cooled)

Salad Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup diced sushi-grade ahi tuna or cooked shrimp (or tofu for vegetarian)
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup edamame (steamed)
  • 2 tablespoons pickled red onion or radish (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon green onions, chopped

Dressing:

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon sriracha (optional)

Instructions

  1. Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), and sriracha to make the dressing.
  2. Assemble: Start with a base of rice. Arrange tuna or protein, avocado, cucumber, carrots, edamame, and pickled vegetables on top in separate sections.
  3. Drizzle: Pour the dressing over the bowl just before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For added crunch, top with crispy wonton strips or roasted seaweed snacks.
  • To make it low-carb, swap the rice for cauliflower rice or shredded cabbage.
