So you want to shed those extra pounds and you know you're not eating right. Eating too many carbs and you want to eat healthier food. I may be able to help.
I visited This Fit Fuel recently located at 730 Liberty in downtown Beaumont. It sells healthy meals to go or you can eat there in their large spacious restaurant. Nothing fancy and no obvious decor.
I saw an advertisement of this place on FB and I read some very good reviews. I was eager to check it out. The owner and an employee greeted me as soon as I walked in. I told the lady employee that this was my first time so I needed help ordering. She was very patient and made some good suggestions.
There are two sizes. The small container holds between 8.05-11oz of food for $7.75. And the large size holds between 10-14oz of food for $10.75. I don't quite understand the variety of weight within each size. You order one protein (meat) and two veggies. If you live a meat-free life style they also offer a veggie bowl. So I bought two small containers to start because you never know about the taste of low carb, gluten free food.
The first was the Cajun Chicken, sweet potato mash, and spaghetti squash. I was skeptical because my 10oz was not a lot of food, but it was really good. The Cajun Chicken was very flavorful. The chicken had a mild kick, not dry and I liked it a lot. I also enjoyed the sweet potato mash with cinnamon. It was like a sweet taste of fall. The spaghetti squash had good flavor but could have been cooked a tad longer. A bit too crunchy for me. At the end, I wasn't full but satisfied. The portions are so small in two hours I was hungry again.
Next meal was the meat loaf. The look was not appealing but the taste was fantastic. Wow, this was my favorite, bursting with incredible flavor. There was a rich tomato base with great spices added for a surprisingly meaty taste. The canned green beans were seasoned well with bacon and I had sweet potatoes again, which I enjoyed. Simply delicious and nutritious food. So if you are looking for a nutritionally balanced, earth friendly meal that is low carb, gluten free or just want to eat healthier, this is a good place to start. The flavors are fantastic and the menu is large and detailed. This Fit Fuel is on FaceBook. Check them out. I also included a menu for your convenience. Support Locals First.
