Expert Tips
- If you're looking for a less spicy rice bowl with salmon, try swapping out Sriracha for tahini, teriyaki, or miso to keep the Asian flavors without the heat.
- Stir in some ginger paste and top with some cilantro or green onions.
- Try other proteins such as shrimp, tofu, tuna, halibut, or whichever fish you prefer.
- For a low-carb version try making shrimp buddha bowls without rice or use cauliflower rice.
