Spicy Tuna Quinoa Bowl with Sesame Kale

 

I've been trying to incorporate more fish into my diet, but every time I think fish, I just want to eat sushi. But I realized a more cost-effective way to get my omega-3s is with canned tuna — made in a way that makes me feel like I'm eating sushi! You only need a few ingredients for this bowl, and it's definitely much less expensive — and likely more healthy — than going to your favorite sushi restaurant. 

Ingredients (serves 1)

  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup kale leaves
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 5 oz canned tuna
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha
  • 1 stalk green onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 small avocado, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds

1. Place quinoa in a bowl. Heat up sesame oil in a small pan on medium-low heat. Add kale and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft. Place on top of quinoa.

2. In a separate small bowl, combine tuna, Sriracha, and green onion. Add to quinoa bowl.

3. Top with diced avocado and sesame seeds.
