Bowls are the latest way to feast, use up left overs and get all your required protein, veg and grains into your diet.

The trick is in having a bowl of eye candy overloaded with a variety of flavours, textures and colours. And not to forget the crunch. Assemble and Dig in.

Originally, a Poke Bowl is a Hawaiian dish consisting of a base of rice or greens topped with marinated, diced raw fish, most commonly tuna or salmon and various other toppings like veggies, sauces and crunchy elements. The name 'poke' means to dice or cut popular additions like cucumber, avocado, edamame, spicy mayo or soy-based dressing and add.
