Nourish Bowls- I am obsessed. Fast food gone healthy.

It has been a while since popping in. Thought I would share my latest obsession. I have tried to eat "real food" as much as possible, particularly since my forme obese state was largely dependent on processed crap food and a truckload of sugar. I cook a lot, but recently had to pack up my kitchen in anticipation of moving. Found this product "nourish bowls" in the produce section of Meijers. There is for sure enough veg in one container for a sleever to make at least 2 meals out of it without adding protein. Add protein and it goes a long, long way.

What I like about them aside from tasting fantastic is you get a lot of quality veggies and nutrition minus the tons of preservatives and crap. I have only tried the Monterray Risotto version, but these will be in the rotation for now at least until I am up and cooking again. Pair it with some Costco Rotisserie chicken and you could eat for a week with minimal food prep. Honestly, this is better than fast food! Worth a shot to those of you that can tolerate the fresh veggies on the sleeve.

Are you using the flavor pack? I'd make my own with almost no sugar if I grabbed that. I'll have to look at it on my next trip. Thx

I am, but I am also in maintenance so a few cals from the sauce is not a problem. However, even if I had found this during the weightloss phase... I would prepare it as directed, but eat a small amount of the veggies alongside lean protein. One package would have lasted me for 5 meals that way.

That's okay, but I looked at that flavor pack and I guarantee I can make it taste great without the sugar. I try not to eat any food that has over 7g sugar per serving. It's part of my new operational system. Maintenance for me won't change that frame. But that's what I want to do and have to do. Thanks again for pointing out the product

If you come up with a weight-loss friendly sauce recipe for one of them could you post it pretty please?
