Healthy dinner out! Enjoy the weekend at friends, or try Q’doba, Chipotle, or Crazy Bowls and Wraps. Try a burrito bowl at Q’doba or Chipotle–hold the rice, sour cream, and other fattening add-ons. Just get meat or fish, and veggies (you can add guacamole if at Mex place). CBW has lots of great veggie/fish/meat bowls, hold the rice and avoid the syrupy sweet sauces. Or go to your fave healthy restaurant–HotPot or Symbowl are two of my favorites in St. Louis and they serve great Paleo styled meals. Hold the rice, noodles and starch!
