Family Friendly Dinner Recipe
Let’s be honest, finding a family friendly dinner recipe that the whole family will love (or at least eat!) is hard! The beauty of this poke bowl recipe is that you can swap out the toppings that your kids don’t like for toppings that you know they’ll definitely eat. They don’t like purple cabbage? Swap it for grated carrot. Not down with radish? Swap it for broccoli. You get my drift. Change the toppings to suit your family if need be.
And while one kid likes one vegetable another one hates it. The beauty of this dish is that you can prepare a bunch of different toppings and you can involve the kids by getting them to pick which ones they prefer.
If you’re short on time then I highly recommend you try my Smoked Salmon Poke Bowl, which is just as delicious but quicker to make.
How to Make Baked Salmon Poke Bowl
Can you cook rice? Then you can definitely cook this dish. Honestly, there is nothing better then a fuss free, but utterly delicious meal in the middle of the week. I am seriously all about quick, healthy meals! Here’s how to make this poke bowl recipe:
- Preheat the oven and pop the rice onto cook. While the rice is cooking, pop the steamer on top of the saucepan and throw in the edamame to steam. Once the edamame is bright green, remove it from the heat and place the lid back onto the saucepan.
- While the rice is cooking, create the marinade in a medium sized bowl. Pour half of the marinade into a small pouring jug or jar and set aside.
- Cube the salmon and place into the medium sized bowl with marinade and toss to combine. Pour all of this into a baking dish and bake for 15 minutes.
- While the salmon is baking and the rice is cooking, cut up all of the vegetables.
- Once the rice and salmon is cooked, divide rice between bowls, top with salmon and veggies. Drizzle with a small amount of extra sauce, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve!
Teriyaki Style Sauce
Teriyaki sauce is delicious but unfortunately filled with sugar. This teriyaki style sauce is healthier, yet still delicious! Normally, teriyaki sauce is made from soy sauce, mirin and brown sugar. My version uses Tamari (gluten free soy sauce), honey and rice wine vinegar.
