While we all enjoy a nice healthy salad or fruit-packed smoothie as much as the next person, let’s be real for a second. Finding something that tastes really good and still manages to be legitimately healthy can sometimes feel like the world’s most difficult problem. But your new favorite healthy-but-tastes-delicious dish is just a scroll away. Thanks to the mother-daughter team behind L.A.’s Bites and Bashes, you can now enjoy the zesty zing of falafel fritters packed with protein, antioxidant-rich garbanzo beans and spiked with a hearty helping of veggies thanks to Flora Green Blend (US) / Beyond Greens (CA). Looking for something vegan? This vegetarian dish can easily go vegan by omitting the tzatziki.
