Sorry, that title is quite the stretch!!
We had these Tuna Poke Bowls from the Cook Smarts recipe collection last night and they were SO GOOD!
I think they are pronounced “poo-key,” right? Or poke as in “poke your eye out”? Someone please confirm because my Google search led me to both pronunciations!
Nevertheless, they were awesome.They have layers of tuna, jasmine rice, avocado, cucumber, edamame, massaged kale, and a sriracha sauce. We ended up searing the tuna in a skillet so it was cooked on the outside and slightly rare on the inside. I was nervous about eating raw fish at home. But it was still 100% delicious. The sauce on top was the best part! And I loved the generous amount of massaged kale involved.
Also – HOLLA to prep day! This meal came together in 10 minutes thanks to my rice cooker and prep!
Plus it was so good I had it again for lunch today : ) (I added a little Greek yogurt too this time!)
This morning I had another appointment with Dr. Getty at Airrosti for my foot. Shout out to the blog reader who paid him a visit after my first mention! Haaaaay! Dr. G did more painful-yet-progressive things to my foot, and I think we are making progress towards better mobility and hopefully less stiffness and pain in the long run.
After that I went to the gym – strength class – for the first time in …..ohhhh….3 weeks. Chris is actually out injured, so Erin taught the class. She did a different strength move nearly every minute, and we didn’t repeat a thing. I loved the variety!
I have settled in back at home to work for a bit before going to get Mazen and heading to the country for a fun afternoon playdate!
TTYL : )
Yum that looks awesome! I just had a tuna poke bowl for lunch today!
My understanding is it’s pronounced “poh-kay”. 🙂
Actually, perhaps better yet “poh-keh”
OK so POH instead of POO! Haha
This is how I say it. We actually have a restaurant here in Madison, WI dedicated completely to poke!
My favorite dish during my vacation to Hawaii last spring too! So cool that Cook Smarts included it in their plan! Was it pretty easy to make?
Yes just assemble and you’re good to go!
Also had this for lunch, and also agree with poh-KAY.
It always looks like you eat so little… 🙂
That’s a huge Pottery Barn bowl and I had a huge lunch out!
Hi Kath, I read your blog through a feed (Bloglovin’) and it hasn’t updated in a couple days. The last post it shows is the camping one. All the other blogs in my feed are still updating so I’m wondering if it could be something on your end?
Oh dear – I have no idea what might be causing that. Thank you for alerting me – I will look into it.
This has happened to me in the past and clearing the cache fixed the problem.
mazen and gus are so cute! would love a post to learn more about gussie.
Just like Pokémon- poh-kay
Is Poke all the rage in you part of the country? It’s a huge trend in SoCal and Poke restaurants are popping up everywhere! My husband doesn’t eat fish though so I have yet to try it.
Hi Kath! I just got poke for lunch and there was a blackboard in the store that said: “Pronounced Poh-Kay” 🙂
Haha thanks!!
Poke is everywhere here in LA and I can never get enough! I agree with the poh-keh pronunciation, poh-kay is a little more Americanized. You can even get it by the pound at the Costco near my house!
Hawaiian here, and poh-kay is the correct pronunciation. As we now live on the mainland, I’m so excited that poke is finally getting popular over here!
I live on the Big Island of Hawaii and everybody here calls it Poh-key!! You would think it would be Poh-keh –but it’s not!
