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
Cauliflower rice - Pulse florets in a food processor until broken up into ‘rice’-sized bits. Cook rice in one of two ways: 1) Microwave for 4 to 5 minutes and then fold in butter. Season with some salt and pepper; or 2) Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add butter. Saute cauliflower in heated butter for ~5 minutes, until tender but still crunchy. Season to taste with some salt and pepper. Watch this video for the full how-to on cauliflower rice. (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)
Slice salmon into 1/2” / 1.3 cm cubes. Gently toss with aminos, sesame oil, and sesame seeds.
If cauliflower rice was made ahead, reheat in the microwave.
Assemble bowls with a base of cauliflower rice and spinach. Top with mangos, cucumbers, avocados, and salmon. Top with Sriracha mayo and furikake. Enjoy!
