Last night's leftovers become lunch-time magic with this TikTok-inspired Salmon Bowl created by Emily Mariko. A quick trip in the microwave reheats the salmon and rice (you'll love the accompanying ice cube trick), then it's all about the toppings! Soy sauce, sriracha and Kewpie mayonnaise get mixed in for a perfectly spicy sauce. Pair it with umami-rich nori and kimchi, and you've got an epic lunch.
Ingredients
- 3 ounces cooked salmon , flaked
- 1 cup cooked white rice
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons sriracha or other hot sauce
- 2 teaspoons Japanese mayonnaise , such as Kewpie®
- 1 sheet nori , torn
- 0.5 ripes avocado , sliced
- 0.25 cups kimchi

Use a fork to flake salmon onto a microwave-safe plate. Top with rice and place 1 ice cube on top. Cover with a microwave-safe lid and microwave at low power for 30 seconds. Uncover and check temperature. If salmon and rice are not warm enough, cover and return to the microwave for another 30 seconds at low power.

Miso Noodle Soup in a Jar
Our version of miso noodle soup in a jar was inspired by recipes on TikTok for miso soup in a jar. Try this heat-and-eat recipe for a warming main to prep and tote all season long. Use jars labeled "microwave-safe" (check the bottoms) and never microwave the lids.
Curry Stand Chicken Tikka Masala Sauce
A tikka masala sauce from a classic curry-stand recipe. This is not haute cuisine; it's the kind of nuclear-orange tikka masala you crave when you stumble out of a pub at 2 a.m. I make vast quantities of this sauce at one time as it freezes well. I also use more cayenne pepper than 1 teaspoon, but I give out the recipe like this for people who don't like heat.
