Trader Joe’s Acai Bowl Review
Here are my thoughts on the frozen acai bowl from Trader Joe’s:
- PROS: Easy to make, convenient, nutritious ingredients, delicious flavor, great source of fiber, naturally gluten-free and vegan
- CONS: Not filling enough for a meal, plastic container, price (considering you would need to add something to it to make it a meal)
Ingredients

Trader Joe’s Acai Bowl Nutrition
As I mentioned, I have an issue with the nutrition. Not really, unless you’re trying to tell me that it’s a breakfast. 🙂 If you want it as a meal, you’ll need to ADD something to it. A scoop of peanut butter or nut butter is a great choice, or you could serve it as part of a meal with some toast and hard boiled eggs or breakfast sausage.
It’s a little low in protein for a meal, so if you want this to be a meal, add some protein with the ideas below.
