Each day, millions of Americans suffer through wilted salad bar lunches, depressing microwavable meals and soggy leftovers. It's a problem of epically unappetizing proportions—and BJ's Restaurants Inc. is looking to provide options. To celebrate the new year and the expanded EnLIGHTened Entrees menu, as well as save the world from dull, flavorless eating, BJ's created the Live a Little. Better. Grant. Its purpose? Find three people suffering from uninspired meals and reward them with a grant for $10,000 worth of food at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. The EnLIGHTened Entrees menu contains carefully crafted guilt-free dishes: nutrient rich-superfoods, low-calorie dishes, vegetarian entrees and gluten-sensitive options. Earlier this year, the new Cauliflower and Quinoa Power Bowl, starting at $11.50, made its debut on the EnLIGHTened Entrees® menu. These power-packed bowls are gluten-free and are available vegetarian-style or with high-protein options like grilled or blackened chicken, flame-broiled or blackened salmon or Cajun shrimp.
