Healthy Eating at Utopia Juice Bar

My ultimate vision is to be a health nut, but temptation makes it a little tricky to maintain a healthy diet. So, I’m always excited to try out healthy eating options and freshly prepared meals.

In August of 2017, I dealt with grief from my younger sisters untimely passing.  Six months later, my grandfather died (he was my everything) and depression took a major toll on me. I coped with each loss by eating. Overeating was a mechanism to deal with the pain I kept bottled inside.

Fast forward to mid- 2018, I gained a whopping 50 pounds. I was super uncomfortable in my own skin and I became a recluse. Eventually, I decided that I needed to get my life back on track, so I started to focus on weight loss and healthy eating around August 2018. I cut out all fatty foods, attended sculpting classes in the gym, and researched local eateries that focused on healthy foods. Utopia Juice Bar was one of the restaurants I frequented to help me lose weight and eat a healthier balanced meal. I lost 30 pounds in 3 months and Utopia Juice Bar helped during the process.

The Restaurant

Utopia Juice Bar focuses on vegan and organic food. The juice bar offers an assortment of healthy options such as juices, smoothies, acai bowls, vegan meal options, and detox shots (just to name a few). Everything is made to order, so the food is always fresh and delicious. When I find a restaurant that offers healthy food options that taste very yummy, I get a little excited. Utopia Juice bar is that kind of restaurant.

The owners and staff are very welcoming and friendly. Susy, one of the owners is such a pleasure. Every time I visit the restaurant, she greets me with a smile and an encouraging message.

Let’s not forget about the ambiance of the juice bar. It’s a hidden gem with nice décor featuring distressed wood tables, greenery, draft kombucha with a watermelon display, and cool neon lights.

My Favorite Menu Items

Here are a few of my favorite items from the juice bar…

Superfood Cereal Bowl:

I thoroughly enjoyed the enhanced version of the cereal bowl. The food display was down-right beautiful, and I felt so special with the loving care the owners showed me. The mouthwatering ingredients included a granola mix and organic acai topped with coconut flakes, strawberries, blueberries, and Brazilian guarana syrup. The cereal also included milk, bananas, raspberries, organic white mulberries, and flax seeds. They garnished the dish with a special version with pitaya, mango, and mint.

Smoothies:

When I’m in a hurry, I usually grab a smoothie. It’s super quick to prepare and filled with yummy goodness. I add a little protein powder to ensure that I have the complete nutrients my body needs.

The “Pink Paradise” is my favorite smoothie (the color def has something to do with it 😊). The pitaya mixed with pineapples hits the spot every time. My second fav is the “Verde Vortex” which is mixed with kale, spinach, apple, parsley, and coconut water.

Detox Shots:

I’m not a fan of shots, but the benefits far outweigh the taste. When I need a little pick me up, I grab an “Elixir” shot to regulate my digestion and detox my tummy.

Who knew that healthy food could taste this yummy? Pick up some nutritious treats over at Utopia Juice Bar! I highly recommend it for weight loss and eating healthy meals.
