Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes.
In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, agave syrup, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
Add the cubed tofu to the marinade, ensuring it's well coated, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
While the tofu marinates, prepare your vegetables: slice the cucumber, julienne the carrot, thinly slice the red cabbage, and slice the avocado.
Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
In a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil to lightly coat the pan and cook the marinated tofu until golden on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.
To assemble the poke bowl, divide the cooked sushi rice into 4 bowls.
Top the rice with cooked tofu, sliced cucumber, julienned carrot, red cabbage, avocado slices, and shelled edamame.
Garnish with thinly sliced scallions, sesame seeds, and nori strips.
Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors.
