Trend Alert: 2016 is the year of BOWLING!

How to: Swap sandwiches, wraps & burritos to BOWLS.

Why: BOWLS hold more veggies than sandwiches, wraps & burritos so they are lower in calories & higher in nutrition. Think about it….a breakfast sandwich barely has any veggies on it and a typical lunch sandwich has way too much bread & salty, processed deli meat.

Start now: Go grab a bowl, load it with produce & then top it with your favorite protein + grain. Bonus: When you eat from a bowl it slows you down so you naturally eat less & enjoy it more.

Perfect BOWL Anatomy = Protein + Grain + Veggies!!!
I like to portion the protein + grain + veggies separately into a bowl…and then mix it all up!

The Superfood Swap Starter Kit (SOLD HERE) has recipes for my favorite 8 bowls: Ranch Bowl, Greek Bowl, Mexican Bowl, Asian Sesame Bowl, Hummus Bowl, Kale Caesar Bowl, Cobb Bowl, Thai Bowl.

BOWLS are the new plate, people!!

The vegetarian lunch bowls are amazing tasting and it’s not hard to make, I have recommended it to a lot of my friends already.
