Revolutionize Your Poke Game with a Low-Carb Twist

If you’re a poke bowl enthusiast looking to reduce your carb intake, you’re in luck! By making a few simple substitutions, you can enjoy your favorite dish without sacrificing flavor or nutrition.

The Carb-Cutting Solution: Cauliflower Rice

Traditional poke bowls rely on white rice, which packs a whopping 45 grams of carbs per cup. But what if you could slash that number by 40 grams? Enter cauliflower rice, a low-carb alternative with only 5 grams of carbs per cup. The best part? The flavor of your poke bowl comes from the toppings, so you won’t even miss the rice.
