Start by preparing the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey until well combined.
Dice the sushi-grade ahi tuna into 1-inch cubes and place them in a separate bowl. Pour the marinade over the tuna and gently toss to ensure all pieces are coated evenly. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes.
While the tuna marinates, cook the brown rice according to package instructions if not already cooked. Allow it to cool slightly before using in the poke bowl.
Prepare the vegetables: slice the cucumber into thin rounds, cut the radishes into thin slices, and dice the avocado into cubes. Thinly slice the green onions.
In a medium bowl, combine the edamame beans with a squeeze of lime juice for an added burst of flavor.
Assemble the poke bowl by dividing the cooked brown rice evenly into two bowls.
Top the rice in each bowl with equal portions of marinated tuna, cucumber slices, radishes, edamame, diced avocado, and seaweed salad.
Sprinkle black sesame seeds and freshly sliced green onions on top of each bowl.
Garnish with a sprig of fresh cilantro and an additional lime wedge on the side for an optional zesty finish. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the poke.
