We tried a couple of standout items from their menu:

Protein-Packed Vegetarian Wrap

For those looking for a nutrient-dense, vegetarian-friendly option, the protein wrap is a winner. It’s loaded with black beans, chickpeas, mixed greens (romaine lettuce, spring mix, baby spinach), pickled jalapeños, cucumbers, and tomatoes, all topped with a delicious homemade vinaigrette. This wrap provides a variety of health benefits:

  1. Fiber-Rich: The black beans and chickpeas offer a great source of fiber, which aids in digestion and helps maintain heart health.
  2. Antioxidants: The mix of fresh greens and vegetables is packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support overall health.
  3. Low-Calorie, Nutrient-Dense: You can enjoy a satisfying meal without the extra calories, making this a perfect option for anyone mindful of their weight and wellness.

Sampler Plate Delight

We couldn’t leave without trying the sampler plate, and it did not disappoint! This dish featured a delightful mix of curry chicken salad, bean salad, collard greens, and beets. Here’s why it’s a healthy choice:

  1. Lean Protein: The curry chicken salad provides a rich source of lean protein, essential for muscle repair and overall energy.
  2. Nutrient Variety: The bean salad and collard greens offer a wide array of vitamins and minerals, supporting heart health and boosting your immune system.
  3. Detoxifying Beets: Beets are well-known for their detoxifying benefits, especially for liver health, adding an extra level of nutrition to your meal.
