POKE BOWL WITH PRAWNS AND QUINOA

POKE BOWL WITH PRAWNS AND QUINOA

Giới thiệu

So I'm really into bowl these days. Admittedly it is a bit of a challenge when u have a full time job and must run errands here and there. I often prepare vegetable, rice and meat in advance. So during the week, it would be simple assembing everything together. 
This time I prepare my bowl with quinoa, prawns and fresh vegetables. 😎
A poke bowl with prawns and quinoa is a fresh and nutritious dish that brings together vibrant flavors and healthy ingredients. The bowl features succulent, marinated prawns as the star ingredient, offering a tender and flavorful bite. Quinoa, a protein-rich grain, forms the base, providing a nutty flavor and a satisfying texture. The bowl is typically topped with an array of colorful ingredients like avocado, cucumber, radishes, and seaweed, adding both crunch and freshness. Drizzled with a light, tangy dressing, often made with soy sauce, sesame oil, and citrus, the flavors are perfectly balanced. This dish is not only visually appealing but also packed with nutrients, making it a delicious and wholesome option for a light lunch or dinner. 

Do you know:
1. Prawn: Prawn/shrimp are lean sources of high-quality protein, low in calories and fat. They are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, and contain important nutrients like selenium, vitamin B12, and iodine, aiding in metabolism and thyroid function. Their sweet, briny flavor and firm texture make them a popular choice in stir-fries, salads, and seafood dishes.

2. Quinoa: Quinoa is a whole grain known for its high protein content, containing all nine essential amino acids. It’s also rich in fiber, iron, magnesium, and antioxidants, supporting digestion, muscle health, and reducing inflammation. Quinoa’s mild, nutty flavor and fluffy texture make it a versatile base for salads, bowls, and side dishes.

3. Parsley: Parsley is a fresh herb rich in vitamins A, C, and K, supporting vision, immune health, and blood clotting. It also contains antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties. Parsley’s bright, slightly peppery flavor makes it a versatile garnish or ingredient in salads, sauces, and various cooked dishes, adding a fresh taste and nutritional boost.

4. Avocado slices: Avocado is a nutrient-dense fruit high in healthy monounsaturated fats, which support heart health. It’s also rich in fiber, vitamins C, E, and K, and potassium, aiding digestion, skin health, and maintaining blood pressure. Avocado’s creamy texture and mild flavor make it ideal for salads, spreads, and as a topping for various dishes.

Weightwatchers (Opt for losing weight):
To make a Poke Bowl with Prawns and Quinoa more weight-loss-friendly, use pre-cooked quinoa as it is high in protein and fiber, which helps keep you full. Opt for a smaller amount of avocado to control calorie intake, as it is calorie-dense despite its healthy fats. Minimize or omit salt to reduce sodium levels, and use a small amount of lemon juice for flavor without adding extra calories. Load up on cucumber, tomato, and finely chopped parsley, as they add freshness and nutrients with minimal calories. Boiled shrimp is a lean protein choice, keeping the dish light and satisfying.
