The beginning of summer is the perfect time to create a few healthy habits. CraveWell Juicery & Cafe helps by offering a colorful menu of diverse options to jump start a healthy lifestyle. From wraps to bowls, smoothies, cold press juices, salads and more, CraveWell Juicery & Cafe offers a quick and wholesome alternative to fast food chains.

“Start your health journey by adding something healthy, rather than taking away anything that you’re already doing,” suggests Cile Wilson, owner and operator of CraveWell Juicery & Cafe. Atlanta native Wilson knows that it is easy to be active and eat healthier with the right fuel to start the day. She shares five tips for starting a healthy lifestyle without feeling deprived, using some of the delicious CraveWell menu items.

1. Overnight oats - With 12 grams of protein, overnight oats are packed with nutrients to keep guests feeling fuller longer. It’s a great breakfast treat and will help start the day on a high note. CraveWell’s overnight oats come loaded with chia seeds, slivered almonds and fresh fruit to make that first meal of the day really count.

2. Avocado on toast - This breakfast or lunch option can add 6-7 grams of fiber to one’s diet, which aids in digestion. Avocados are heart healthy and help with cancer prevention, eye health and weight management. CraveWell has two options for avocado-loving guests. Avocado toast is topped with avocado and cherry tomatoes and drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice and finished with red pepper flakes. Avo hummus toast is topped with hummus, avocado, cherry tomato, creamy goat cheese and sprinkled with red pepper flakes.

3. Smoothies - CraveWell’s smoothies are perfect for on-the-go lifestyles and pack in many nutrients that help guests feel their best. Guests can avoid processed foods and chalk up part of their daily servings of fruits and veggies with a smoothie and take advantage of the option of adding extra spinach for even more nutrients. The Lean Green smoothie has almond milk, spinach, banana and almond butter for a power-packed punch of nutritious goodness.

4. Cold press juice - “It’s easier to drink your fruits and vegetables than to take the time to eat them,” says Wilson. When guests choose a refreshing cold press juice, they will reap the benefits of three to four pounds worth of fruits and vegetables that can hit the bloodstream fast with almost complete absorption. Juices build immunity for all the summer adventures ahead. The aptly named Antioxidant includes juicy blueberries and nutrient-rich beets as well as refreshing celery, cucumber and lemon.

5. Matcha chia pudding - A fantastic source of soluble and insoluble fiber, matcha chia seed pudding aids in digestion and gut health. The nutritious and delicious snack is full of creamy, antioxidant-rich matcha, chia seeds, vanilla, agave nectar and almond milk, then topped with slivered almonds and blueberries. 

In the end, it’s all about adding a few nutrient-rich items to the diet. “Just start by adding something healthy and don’t worry about depriving yourself,” notes Wilson. “That way, you're changing your taste buds to crave something else.”
