Original GF Paleo Vegetarian

Poke bowls are always a weeknight hit with our community because they are so quick and easy to assemble. This one, which last appeared in 2021, has lots of cooling fresh flavor and a creamy-spicy sauce to top it all off.
Smarts: If you prefer not to serve the fish raw, you can sear it and then toss it, still warm, with the seasoning mixture.

Prep

Rice - (Double if making Wednesday's meal.) For white rice, rinse until clear. Fill a saucepan or Dutch oven (or rice cooker) with rice, water (use 2:1 ratio for water to rice), and some salt. Cover with lid and bring to a boil. Once water boils, stir, lower heat to a low-medium, and cover. Check white rice after ~20 min; brown at ~45 min. Rice is done when it's absorbed all the water. If it's not done, leave the cover on until all water has been absorbed. Take cover off to release steam and fluff with a wooden spoon after 5 minutes. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
Make Sriracha mayo - Combine mayonnaise, Sriracha, and lime juice. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
Mangos / Cucumbers - Prep as directed. Store separately. (Can be done 1 day ahead)
Edamame - If using frozen edamame, defrost. (Can be done 1 day ahead)
Avocados - Chop avocados.
