Crazy Bowls!

Have you ever been to Crazy Bowls and Wraps, "where healthy and tasty merge,"?!? Please try it! My friend Katie introduced me to this lovely little place in Mission Valley. The food was fresh, healthy, and cheap! Salmon protein bowl with grilled veggies and a diet coke=$8!!! Leave it to Katie (aka super fitness personal trainer guru) to find the healthiest places to meet up :) love that girl!

I was inspired to recreate the protein bowl veggies...they were crisp and delicious, and seemed easy enough to add to any meal. I loved the crisp edamame and zucchini that were included in each bowl. I've been having a hard time including good, fresh veggies into all of our meals (minus breakfast) and decided this would be a perfect solution! On top of that, the fresh produce that I normally buy, like zucchinis, go bad before we are able to eat them all (darn Henry's and their sales!).

Plan of attack: purchase fresh produce, including-zucchini, edamame, bell peppers, broccoli, and shredded carrots. Wash veggies. Slice and dice however you like. Place into blue mixing bowl, and mix. Next step: DO NOT place all veggies into gallon-size bag. Instead: Place in individual quart-size bags (or whatever a single portion or meal would require). I made the mistake of putting all of the produce into the gallon bag...and now it's frozen into one big mass of veggies! Ah well! Live and learn :)

Hope you try (and enjoy) this tasty veggie mix!

agape, Meg

  1. I know just what you mean Megan : ) I always have the best intentions with zucchini and nothing comes of it. Good idea! I wish I would have tried that place. I don't know how I missed it!
