“This might be the best thing I’ve eaten in a while.” This is an actual quote from Trevor after he tried this Spicy Tuna Roll Bowl recipe. SUCCESS!

Trevor usually likes the food I make, but it’s a special victory when he says it’s the BEST thing he’s eaten in a while! Well, you guys, I’d have to agree with Trevor. I think this is the best thing I’ve eaten in a while too. This Spicy Tuna Roll Bowl is a deconstructed version of everyone’s favorite sushi roll: the spicy tuna roll. And it’s SO. DARN. GOOD!

Here’s why this spicy tuna roll bowl is the real deal: it’s quicker than making homemade sushi, it’s easier than making homemade sushi, and it’s cheaper than buying sushi.

Oh and also it’s SO YUMMY!!!

What’s the difference between a sushi bowl and a poke bowl?

A poke bowl is typically made up of rice, raw salmon or tuna, and toppings like soy sauce and seaweed. A sushi bowl can simply be another name for a poke bowl, but it can also be made with cooked fish instead of raw.

In today’s recipe, we’re ditching the raw tuna and using canned cooked tuna instead. We’re also having fun with the toppings and adding a spicy mayo sauce!

Is this sushi bowl served hot or cold?

This bowl is best served cold . . . just like the actual spicy tuna roll! Because we’re serving this cold, this makes a perfect meal prep lunch. Simply prep all your ingredients, store in the fridge, then assemble and eat. No microwaving required!

Ingredients

Spicy Mayo Ingredients

You guys this spicy mayo is to die for and perfect drizzled over our sushi bowl. Creamy, spicy, tangy and made with very few ingredients:

  • Mayonnaise – I used an olive oil-based mayonnaise to keep it on the lighter side, but you can use whatever mayo you prefer!
  • Sriracha – I like to add more sriracha to make my sauce extra spicy but you can add as little or as much as you like depending on your heat preferences!
  • Lemon Juice – adds a bit of tang to the spicy mayo.
  • Sesame Oil – offsets the tang of the lemon juice with an earthy, nutty flavor. It’s a strong flavor, so a little goes a long way.
  • Soy Sauce – the classic dipping sauce for sushi to provide a salty “umami” flavor. Use tamari or coconut aminos to keep this gluten free.
  • Rice Vinegar – adds a slight tangy, fermented flavor. I don’t recommend substituting another vinegar. Rice vinegar isn’t as potent as other vinegars such as white or apple cider.

Other Sushi Bowl Ingredients

Between the whole grains, lean protein, and veggies . . . we’ve got a whole lot of healthy going on:

  • Brown Rice – the base for the bowl. I love using brown rice for its health benefits and hearty texture. Feel free to use whatever grain you have on hand.
  • Canned Tuna – a delicious, lean protein for your healthy sushi bowl. Since this is the star of our bowl, be sure to use a good quality canned tuna.*
  • Cucumbers – add an amazing freshness to the rich sauce and tuna.
  • Carrots – add color and a crunchy texture.
  • Avocado – a great healthy fat!
  • Salt and Pepper (to taste) – brings out other flavors and adds spice.
  • Sesame Seeds (optional) – add some crunch and a nutty taste.
  • Pickled Ginger (optional) – pickled ginger isn’t for everyone, but I LOVE the strong ginger flavor it adds to the sushi bowl.
  • Jalapeños (optional) – gives the meal some extra heat to go along with the spiciness from the mayo sauce.
  • Sesame Oil (optional) – for topping. Adds more of that nutty taste.
JUMP TO RECIPE

This is SOME wiggle room in this recipe. If you’re not a fan of tuna, canned salmon or even canned chicken will work beautifully.

Vegan? Use veganaise for the mayo and chickpeas for the canned tuna. It’ll still be a delicious, protein packed lunch!

*What does good quality canned tuna mean?

  • Look for the word “solid” – this yields a better texture, because you’ll break it up yourself. No mushy tuna, thank you very much.
  • Look for “packed in water” – we’re adding our own healthy fats in the sauce and with the avocado in this recipe. We don’t need any additional fat from the can of tuna.
  • Look for “pole and line fishing only” – this means the tuna weren’t mass caught.
  • Look for the MSC-certified seal – this means that the tuna were sustainably caught.

How to make this spicy tuna sushi bowl

Whether you’re making these bowls in advance for meal prep lunches or whipping them up on the fly, this recipe is insanely quick and easy:

  1. Use a whisk to mix together your spicy mayo sauce ingredients in a small bowl.Spicy mayo in small bowl with whisk
  2. If eating immediately: combine all ingredients in a bowl then drizzle with sauce or if meal prepping: store all components in separate airtight containers.Spicy mayo being drizzled over spicy tuna roll bowl

Pro tip
If meal prepping, be sure your brown rice has completely cooled after cooking before storing in an airtight container in the fridge.

Is this spicy tuna roll bowl healthy?

Yes! This spicy tuna roll bowl is full of complex carbs, healthy fats, lean protein, and tons of fresh veggies!

1 bowl + 1/2 the dressing has 397 calories, 15 grams of fat, 26 carbs, and 36 grams of protein.

How to store

All the spicy tuna sushi bowl components can be stored in separate airtight containers in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Since it’s served cold, there’s no reheating necessary. I would not recommend freezing this recipe.

    5 stars I don’t think I’ve ever left a review on a recipe but after repeatedly coming back to this one, I figured I should!:) Such a quick and easy lunch! I know some people may not like this but I always use plain Greek yogurt instead of mayo and the dressing is still SO delicious! Thanks for a great recipe!

    5 stars Making tomorrow from a clients Yellow fin tuna he caught and had canned (with Jalapenos). I am using wild rice for some crunch and flavor different from regular rice. I also grow micro greens and sprouts in my motorhome (no more going to the store and these are always fresh) so I will add some daikon micro greens and hot mix sprouts to the top after mixing all together. Also have some packs of seaweed which I will cut on top with the fresh micro greens and sprouts.

    4 stars Because we’re living in the time of social distancing, a lot of the foods that used to be so accessible for me are out of the question. I never even thought I could recreate a poke bowl at home without the real nice sashimi, or all of the other things on top. This was a big hit! Word of warning, though: apple cider vinegar is NOT a good substitute for rice vinegar. I know you didn’t suggest it but I tried it since I used the last of my rice vinegar to make pickled onions (omg so good) and immediately regretted it. My sauce took a little bit of work to fix because of my own misstep. The key was adding more sriracha and then a teeny tiny dash of agave to cut down the heat but keep the flavor.. and then eventually just some of the rice vinegar pickle juice because nothing can really replace that. I did mine with a lettuce base, leftover rice, the tuna, red onion, avocado, and the last of my pickled ginger. Thank you for the inspiration!

    5 stars My family and I love this simple, yet amazing recipe. We call it restaurant quality, but we’re happy we don’t have to pay restaurant prices. I make the recipe as described, but one add on that’s not listed is a must for us…nori. We bought just one package when we first made this, and it has lasted through multiple servings. The nori makes it taste and feel very authentic and takes it over the top for us. Thank you for this amazing recipe!

    5 stars Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe. I made it one day when I was craving spicy tuna, but trying to save money. Now my husband and I eat this at least once a week, Tuna Bowl Tuesdays; it is his favorite meal! So quick and easy and perfect for the days when our school and work schedules are opposite- we still have a little time to eat together. It’s SO YUM. We do the usual carrots, cucumbers, and avocado, but we are trying to think of some creative things to add to spice it up once in a while!

    This looks great! Thinking of packing this for my daughter’s school lunch, but is the rice best eaten warm or cold? Should I pack it fully-made with ice in her lunch bag, or deconstruct it and send the rice in a thermos. How is it best served? Thank you.

    5 stars Loved this recipe! We doubled the quantities to serve two and were left with a bit of extra sauce. So I repurposed it for a coleslaw dressing the next day, just thinned out with an extra splash of rice wine vinegar and olive oil, it was also amazing!

    5 stars Just like this recipe, that sriracha mayo dressing looks *almost* too good to be true. 😉 I’m such a huge fan of bowls like these and tuna rolls in general! Sushi is high up on my list, next to Mexican food of course!! 😛
