Vegan sushi bowl

Saturday April 25, 2020 - by

Do you like a delicious vegan sushi bowl packed with vegetables? Try this recipe. Healthy and easy to prepare. Now that temperatures are rising in Holland, we love to eat more salads and bowls like these are our favorites.

Half year ago, we still ate fish and regularly added fresh salmon or tuna to our bowls. Now that we no longer eat fish, we choose a different source of protein. Usually we add tempeh or tofu, but soybeans are also a good option. This vegan sushi bowl contains marinated tempeh and brown rice. For veggies I have chosen for spinach, bean sprouts, carrot and red cabbage. Don’t forget to try apple, which gives a nice fresh taste to salads.

Sushi bowls or officially poke bowls come originally from Hawaï and initially consisted only fish, seaweed and kukei nuts. Poke means ‘’cutting crosswise into pieces’’ and refers to the pieces of raw fish that originally are used in the bowls. Fishermen ate the dish mainly to eat the leftovers.

Around 2012 the poke bowl trend started in the United States and now you can see all kinds of colorful bowls. Fresh raw fish, rice and veggies are the main components of this dish. But tofu, chicken and even beef can be used too. There are plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans. For example, this vegan poke bowl recipe.
