Why It's Perfect for Meal Prep
Many Costco fans love the convenience factor of this new deli find. Fans describe the bowl as a macro-friendly grab-and-go meal that requires no cooking. Others say the flavor is fairly mild on its own, so they add hot sauce, avocado or salsa to customize it. Bonus? Costco has all of those things.
For busy families, the biggest advantage is flexibility. You can eat it cold straight from the container, split it into individual lunch portions or pair it with extra greens for a larger dinner.
Costco has also been expanding its deli offerings beyond the protein bowl. Shoppers have recently spotted new prepared foods including Italian Sausage Pasta and Mango Salmon Ceviche. Those join a growing lineup of ready-to-eat options designed for quick meals at home.
And if you're already making a Costco run, many members still pair deli finds with the warehouse's fan-favorite food court items for an easy family meal. While the food court has delicious options, it does not offer very many high-fiber, high-protein, low-fat options. I know I'll be grabbing one of these protein bowls to chow down at the food court the next time we stop.
At around $16.99 per package, the new Chicken & Grain Protein Bowl isn't the cheapest item in the deli case. But if it truly stretches to four meals, the cost per serving looks much more attractive-especially for shoppers trying to save time on weekday lunches.
For Costco fans looking for a grab-and-go meal with plenty of protein and enough food to last several days, this oversized bowl is the ideal pick.
