Additional Tips: Add an extra side protein

3 days agoEdited to

If you're looking for a kid-friendly meal that's both healthy and budget-savvy, CAVA offers a fantastic option. What I love about customizing these kids' meals is the ability to mix and match a variety of fresh and flavorful ingredients. From unique drinks like Blueberry Lavender to an array of delicious dips such as Skhug, a herbaceous hot sauce, and creamy Tzatziki, there's something to excite every palate. The entrees are thoughtfully crafted, including options like saffron basmati rice and black lentils, which provide a nutritious base. Adding half falafel or roasted veggies boosts both flavor and nutrition. I particularly appreciate the inclusion of fire-roasted corn and fiery broccoli, giving kids gentle exposure to different tastes and textures. From my experience, pairing these meals with pita chips or side pita adds a satisfying crunch that kids enjoy. For parents concerned about protein intake, I recommend adding an extra side protein, as suggested in the article, to keep the meals balanced and filling. This meal customization under $15 is a great way to introduce children to Mediterranean-inspired flavors while maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Plus, ordering via DoorDash or similar apps makes it convenient for busy families. Enjoying a flavorful, nutritious meal doesn't have to be complicated or costly—these kids' meals at CAVA prove it's possible to balance quality and price effectively.

CAVA… but Aldi edition

I spend money on Cava at least once a week. Sometimes twice. And with the money I spend DoorDashing Cava every week, I could just do an Aldi order to recreate my Cava order at home. And it's quick! #cava #aldifinds #mealprep #aldirecipe #bowlmeals

these are super easy and convenient if you live far from Cava like i do🥲 $34.27 for all ingredients and most all of it you don’t have to repurchase. 1 sirloin makes me about 3 bowls and 1 cava order is usually $20. It tastes just as good and i’m obsessed!!
