Build Your Own Poke Bowl!

Poke bowls were all the rage not too long ago. Around this time, I got really into making them at home. I absolutely love sushi and essentially all poke bowls are, is deconstructed sushi.

The beauty of making it into a salad means, you can pump up the vegetables – making a significant contribution to your 5 recommended serves per day – and add plenty of your favourite ingredients. None of this, paying $1 to add avocado business.

The ideal poke bowl will include a source of protein, carbohydrate and a few of your favourite salad vegetables. Build your own poke bowl by using the lists below.

• Edamame
• Tofu (tip: dice and fry lightly in sesame oil and salt reduced soy sauce)
