The all-natural meals that make up this new lineup include the evol Mac & Beef and Beef & Broccoli, both of which offer 25 grams of protein per bowl, while Buffalo Style Chicken Mac and 3 Cheese Chicken & Rice boast even more, with 40 grams of protein per bowl. Across the range, the bowls prioritize protein sources like ABF chicken and USDA Choice Beef.
