[Subway Canada](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/signature-rice-bowls) is adding a fresh twist to its menu with the launch of Power [Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jerkspiced-rice-bowls). These new [protein-packed options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-protein-menu) are loaded with flavour and variety, providing Subway customers with new menu items to savor. Each bowl delivers 26g+ of protein, fresh veggies, sauces, and the all-new Fiesta Bean & Corn Salad, a hearty mix of beans, corn, peppers, onions, and tomatoes.

Guests can choose from five bowls, including two chef-crafted recipes: Piri Piri Chicken and Southwest Steak & Avocado, and build their own with Subway’s signature proteins, veggies, and sauces.

To celebrate, Subway is offering a limited-time deal: the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki or Rotisserie-Style Chicken Power Bowl for $10.99 at over 2,000 participating locations across Canada.
