BOCA, Not Just for Vegetarians

In my journey with weight loss, I’m trying really hard to find products that I can substitute for unhealthy things I normally eat now.    I was introduced to BOCA, a food product that vegetarians/vegans seem to love since it’s soy based but could I love it as much? Don’t freak cause I said soy. I assure you that they are VERY tasty!

BOCA is packed full of protein and has over 50% less fat that a regular “meat” burger.  That makes for a healthy food choice. In fact, Weight Watchers has added the BOCA products and by what I’ve seen, you’re going to only be using 1 point value per serving!!!  Weight Watchers is awesome so to see the two partner together completely rocks!  I’m doing weight watchers so being able to have a BOCA burger without using lots of points will surely help me reach my weight loss goal just a little faster.

One of my favorite things to do is use the BOCA Ground Crumbles in a salad; some lettuce, tomatoes, BOCA crumbles and I’ve got a high protein, healthy lunch.  For breakfast you make BOCA burritos with the crumbles too!  There are tons of recipes that use the different products so you won’t have to worry about having the same thing.

I’ve been eating these now for a few weeks and I have to say, I’m really impressed with the quality and nutritional benefits.  I’m so happy to be  introduced to them because they are not a regular part of eating habits and I can feel good about that.
