Ingredients
- 340 grams sushi-grade ahi tuna
- 60 ml coconut aminos
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons scallions
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 whole avocado
- 1 whole cucumber
- 0.5 cup seaweed salad
- 1 whole lime
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions
Dice the sushi-grade ahi tuna into small cubes, about 1 cm each, and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add the coconut aminos to the bowl with the tuna and gently toss to coat the tuna evenly.
Finely dice the red onion and chop the scallions. Add both to the mixing bowl with the tuna.
Add the sesame oil and red chili flakes to the tuna mixture, and stir to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the marinated tuna for at least 10 minutes to enhance the flavor.
Meanwhile, prepare the salad base: Halve, pit, and dice the avocado, and slice the cucumber into thin rounds.
In a large bowl or serving platter, arrange the mixed greens as a bed for the salad.
Distribute the diced avocado, sliced cucumber, and seaweed salad evenly over the mixed greens.
Remove the marinated tuna from the refrigerator, and spoon it generously over the prepared salad base.
Squeeze the juice of the lime over the top of the entire poke salad.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds to finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy this nourishing Whole30 meal.
