I’ve been a fan of the popular TikTok salmon poke bowls for awhile now. You know the ones with the salmon, cauliflower rice and spicy mayo stuffed in seaweed wraps. They are delicious but the only problem is they are not so filling.

These easy salmon bowls tastes like a high-end sushi restaurant, but is so easy to make at home. Tender flakes of salmon are coated in a sweet teriyaki sauce and served on a bed of sushi rice with spicy mayo and fresh veggies.
You can’t go wrong with this easy salmon recipe! Best of all? You can make each bowl in just 15 minutes.
