Poke Bowls

Poke bowls (pronounced po-kay — you deserve a poke in the eye if you pronounce it po-kee) originated in Hawaii and began simply as chunks of raw tuna served with salt, candlenuts and seaweed. These days, poke bowls are a global food phenomenon and have branched out to include other meats and vegetarian or vegan options. The great thing about poke bowls is they are healthy and can be a great quick meal for one, an easy family meal or an assembly-line-style entertaining option. Our delicious poke bowl recipes offer something for everyone. Choose from our Hemp Poke Bowl; Salmon Poke; Watermelon & Coconut; Miso Cauliflower & Tofu; Rainbow Mushroom; Paprika Chickpeas & Sweet Potato; and Spicy Mexican Poke.
