Menus have some variations depending on location, but examples include the Green Giant Smoothie (pineapple, orange, mango, kale, lime, matcha, ginger, and oat milk); the Tickled Pickle fresh juice (ginger, pineapple, cucumber kale, and lime); and the Banana Cream Pie smoothie bowl, which has a base of banana, cashew cream, and oat milk, topped with banana, plain granola, coconut, golden raisins, and cashew cream. They also offer waffles with toppings and meal-sized salads that can be made into a grain bowl with the addition of whole grain brown rice. And if you’re needing a pick-me-up, grab a coffee and protein blend, such as the Vanilla Coffee Blend, made with coffee, cashew cream, vanilla protein, and oat milk. Let’s hope that BARE Blends continues to grow, because every state in the country needs at least one!
