I’ve gotten on the poke bowl train, these bowls are awesome! What inspired me to first make a poke bowl was my obsession with Pokémon GO this summer!!! Love the game and is a great way to move around and get to know your neighborhood. I’m still waiting to catch my favorite Pokémon….Psyduck!!!! Psyduck is basically my spirit animal.
Anyhoo…in order to get in some intense Pokémon action, you need to fuel yourself with the right foods to keep you going. This poke bowl hits the spot! Super fresh and filling with bright flavors. If you haven’t had a poke bowl yet, give it a go, especially if you love seafood and veggies. There’s a reason why these bowls are soooo popular in places like Hawaii and California. They definitely know what’s up when it comes to great food.
But back to Pokémon…anyone else catch a butt ton of Pidgeys and Rattata?!?! Ughhh…oh well, I’ll keep chugging along. At least the weather has been really nice and exploring more of Kansas City while playing Pokémon GO has been a huge bonus!
Take a look at the recipe and tweak any ingredients to your liking. Making poke bowls should be fun, quick and easy. These are perfect for those busy days. I hope you like this recipe, it is really like having summer in a bowl!

Recipe Notes
Feel free to substitute tamari for ponzu if you are looking for a gluten-free alternative. You can store the tuna mixture for a couple of hours, if you use tofu, it can be stored for a bit longer but I would recommend eating within 12-24 hours. Recipe adapted from Jessica Gavin.
