Category: Veggie Bowls

The first bite into this bowl will transport your tastebuds to the heart of Mexico. We start with a rich mole negro from ¡Ya Oaxaca!, crafted from a blend of dried chilies, chocolate, nuts and spices. Tender seitan strips are mixed with our mole then served over RightRice, a rice alternative made with lentils, chickpeas and green peas. The dish is finished off with sweet plantains, charred corn, pickled red onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

That rich mole negro is seriously something else—you can taste the depth from the dried chilies and that hint of chocolate without it being sweet. I was scraping the bowl clean and wishing I'd ordered two.

Jacob ★★★★★

The chocolate and dried chilies in that mole negro come together so smoothly it’s hard to believe this is a frozen veggie bowl. I ended up scraping every bit of sauce off the tray, it’s that good.

Owen E. ★★★★★

That mole negro is something else—you can taste the chocolate and chilies working together in every single bite, and it's got that deep, nutty complexity you don't find often. The bowl was surprisingly filling for a veggie option, and I'm already craving another one for lunch tomorrow.
