A Bite With The Tattooed Chef

 Cooking for one is never easy. It's not worth the chopping or peeling, then frying or sauteing. Luckily there is microwave bowls and not your run of the mill ones. These are good for you.

I recently discovered Tattooed Chef, during a shopping trip to Target. I was looking for something healthier than the usual fare and something I could just microwave. I came across these

I've had both and they are a great alternative to what's out there. I've also tried their cauliflower pizza bowl with plant protein pepperoni. These heat up within minutes and  are really delicious, My favorite is the cauliflower mac and cheese bowl.It's creamy cheddar cheese poured over riced cauliflower and topped with panko breadcrumbs. The veggie hemp bowl is another good choice, rich with good for you veggies. There is kale , sweet potatoes, hemp and chickpeas over riced cauliflower. A turmeric and almond dressing dresses it ,giving it more oomph in flavor. 

The company, started by chef Sarah Galletti in LA has other dishes, reflecting her LA upbringing and Italian heritage. Hers is the rare company that uses its' own fruits and veggies in the products.it is a true farm to table experience. which is why her bowls taste like they're homemade. She also offers cauliflower gnocchi, a lighter alternative to the potato version, along with zucchini spirals and organic greens , a mix of seasoned zucchini, haricots verts, broccoli peas and leeks.There is also a cauliflower crust pizza and of course more bowls. The emchilada and Buddha bowls are definitely on my radar as is her Mexican street  style corn with cojita, and her cauliflower veggie burgers.Her riced cauliflower stir fry is a nice alternative to the original. There are also breakfast (or snack) bowls containing granola, a  mix of berries including the ever healthy acai and chocolate chips. A fun snack or dessert is her  cold brew and dark chocolate bowl, livened up with granola and strawberries. Most dishes are around five to six dollars at Target. They're also sold at Walmart, Stop and Shop and Costco.

Look to the Tattooed Chef for a better dining for one option.The bowls are good for you and your taste buds. They're a great way for dinner alone.
