Rinse the brown rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. This helps prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
Cook the brown rice according to package instructions, typically using a 2:1 ratio of water to rice. Once cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
While the rice is cooking, dice the fresh sushi-grade tuna into small cubes, about 1/2 inch in size.
In a small bowl, combine low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the tuna cubes to the marinade, stirring gently to ensure they are coated evenly. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes.
Prepare the vegetables: slice the green onions, cucumber, and radish thinly, and dice the avocado.
To assemble the poke bowl, place a portion of cooled brown rice at the base of each bowl.
Top the rice with marinated tuna, arranging slices of cucumber, avocado, shelled edamame, seaweed salad, and radish around the bowl.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Garnish with pickled ginger on the side for an additional burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy classic poke tuna bowl.
