Spicy Tuna Poke Bowl Recipe

This past year I have missed restaurant food. There’s certain dishes, that for some reason intimidate me to attempt at home. A poke bowl is one of those dishes, which is crazy, because now that I’ve made it, it’s so, so easy! The key is making sure that your get good quality, sushi-grade tuna. I was able to order mine from spud.ca. My inspiration for this dish came from fraicheliving.com I just tweaked a few things to make it more to my liking.

Also, just a side-note. I was recently sent a new set of knives from Kilne and they’re fantastic. So sharp, a great weight and a really awesome price. I’d totally recommend them if you’re in the market!
