Poké Nachos with Baked Crispy Wonton Chips
FitMenCook
My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.
Combining two things I love – nachos + poke. Even if you’re not a fan of sushi, there’s no guarantee you’ll dislike poké. In fact, I find more people enjoy it over sushi. It’s much easier to customize the flavors of poke than a sushi roll so you can easily make it enjoyable for you. Incorporate your favorite tropical fruits or use some cajun inspired sauce instead of sriracha – small, easy changes like these make the dish easy to love.
I purchase my sushi grade fish from two places in Dallas – TJ’s Seafood Market & Grill, and Kazy’s Gourmet Shop. If you want to find sushi grade fish in your area, perform a quick search on the Internet using – “[your city] sushi grade fish market.” That query usually yields a few options in your surrounding area.
