Having a Healthy Breakfast at Birdie Bowl and Juicery

I just realized that it’s been awhile since I highlighted one of the awesome spots at The OC Mart Mix. Luckily, I stopped there this past weekend and made sure to visit one of my favorite breakfast spots – Birdie Juicery.
This delightful stand produces a bevy of homemade cold pressed juices.

I’ve tried most of the flavors and can attest they are delicious. But my absolute favorite item to get at Birdie is the acai bowl. They have a variety of flavors – all amazing sounding. On this visit I noticed that I could choose between acai and putayo. I had no idea what putayo was so I made sure to ask. It’s similar to dragon fruit, has a lot of great nutrients and a neutral flavor that will emphasize the flavor of the other fruits in the bowl. Sounds good to me!

Doesn’t that look amazing? On the bottom is the putayo blend (it’s like a really thick smoothie), then comes granola, fruit, and a drizzle of honey. It is so incredibly good. Seriously, it’s one of the best breakfast’s around.
