CAVA Nutrition Tips
Best High-Protein Options: Grilled Chicken (28g), Braised Lamb (24g), Spicy Lamb Meatballs (24g), Grilled Steak (23g), and Black Lentils (18g plant-based protein).
Lowest Calorie Bases: SuperGreens (35 cal), Arugula (20 cal), Baby Spinach (20 cal), Romaine (20 cal) – great for volume without calories.
Smart Swaps: Choose Yogurt Dill (30 cal) or Tzatziki (30 cal) over Garlic Dressing (180 cal) to save 150 calories while keeping creamy flavor.
Build a Balanced Bowl: Start with greens + grain, add one protein, pile on vegetables, finish with a light dressing. Typical balanced bowl: 500-700 calories with 30-40g protein.
