Beet “Poke” Bowls

Poke is absolutely one of my favorite warmer weather meals. So fresh, filling and so damn flavorful. There are so many ways to transform traditional poke into a plant based creation. Today, I’m using beets with Big Tree Farms Coconut Aminos. It’s one of the best substitutes for ahi as it looks almost exactly the same once its steamed.

All of the ingredients need a bit of a different marinade or cooking step, but every single one is just one or two steps and they’re all very fast and easy. Once you do them all, you can have poke set up for days to come!
