Sushi Bowl


I'm not against animal protein, but I am in favor of consuming it in a responsible, environmentally friendly and economical way. This sushi bowl accomplishes that in delicious fashion. Instead of serving each person a big 8 oz. hunk of salmon, we'll use one 8 oz. portion of salmon to divide up between the individual bowls. Then we'll load up on lots of yummy veggies and healthy carbs for a very satisfying and healthy meal. Don't be afraid of the long list of ingredients, with a little meal prep. on the weekend, this meal can come together in a matter of minutes.

NOTES

  • These can be served warm or cold. They are great to pack for lunch.

  • Add red pepper flakes, if you'd like some heat.

  • Salmon can be cooked at 400 for 20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime. You can also use another fish of choice.

  • I cook the fish for sushi bowls to keep them more economical; however, occasionally we splurge and buy sushi grade fish for a raw fish Poke Bowl.

  • On a busy weekend night when no one eats at the same time, I put some of these bowls in the fridge with sauce on the side.

  • This makes for a fun buffet entertaining meal. Place all the components in serving dishes on buffet and let guests assemble their own bowls.
