Maine Lobster Poke Bowl

What is a "Poke" Bowl? A poke bowl is a Hawaiian dish that is deeply rooted in Japanese cuisine. Poke means "cut into pieces" and refers to the slices or cubes of raw fish (in this case LOBSTER) that are served in a bowl along with rice, dressing, vegetables and seasonings. Light in calories, big in flavor --- win/win.
