Bend Bowls is serving up buddha bowls, aka hippie bowls or macro bowls—basically bowls of delicious, healthy food. Best friends and owners Lorena Mathers and Stormie Van Patten said they started the food truck to offer amazing healthy food options and show their girls that dreams can become reality.

"We can't believe the love and support we've gotten already," said Van Patten. Their signature bend bowl includes mixed greens, brown rice, black beans, cabbage slaw, cheddar cheese, avocado, radish, lime, onion, cilantro and house made chimichurri sauce. In addition to their four bowls you can order a hummus veggie platter, quesadilla or chips and salsa.
