I’m taking a scene from Naomi’s blog and spinning her Poke Bites into these Poke Tostadas. Now it’s a legit meal and we can all have second servings because these are healthy-ish, right?
If nothing else, I finally got Cole to try poke for the first time. He refused Naomi’s bites, but was more than willing to take on my Mexican meets Japanese food mash-up. If it sounds like I’m bragging, I might be a little. But that’s only because I am doing my best to make sure Cole and Connor don’t end up a picky eater like I was and like their older brother is now.
Thankfully it’s pretty easy to persuade Cole into trying new things 90% of time. But Connor, my toddler, is proving to be more of a challenge (a lot like his brother Blake). I even resorted to bribery with the promise of a new Transformer and still he refused.
I’m learning I can’t win them all, but 1 out 3 isn’t so bad, right? At least when it comes to these Poke Tostadas.

So what exactly is poke? Sorry to be out of the loop. It looks like tuna. But is poke fish? A certain kind of fish? Looks delicious by the way. #Clueless
Hi Cathy, you’re correct, it’s yellowfin tuna and it’s delicious!
So why don’t you call it tuna tostadas!? What makes it poke?!?
I believe it originated in Hawaii and consists of raw yellowfin tuna (though other fish is used sometimes too)
Boy do I need to try this!!!
Haha cole is awesome! I totally would love these! Sign me up.
I remember all too well the bribery days! I have one who will try everything, and one who is exactly like my husband, totally picky! These look so colorful and delicious Matt. Yay for Cole giving it a try!
This is right up my alley! Looks good, Matt!
These tostadas look incredible – love the addition of mango salsa!
