Can you believe that it is August already? It’s time for the kids to go back to school, time for parents to start the juggling act once again between homework, sports, and a million other demands on their time. It’s easy to forget how important it is to take good care of ourselves while trying to take care of everyone else. This is the perfect time to focus on eating healthy, sustainable food that not only helps you but the environment as well. Here are a few tips to consider:
Choose food that
- Is nutritious and healthy
- Is compassionate to all creatures
- Is free of added toxins
- Is in season and supports your local community
Reducing the distance your food must travel to your plate helps support a healthy environment.
Let Isaac’s Café be your kick-start of healthy eating this month. We feature local, sustainable, healthy and delicious food, prepared to order and served in a setting that invites you to have a relaxing few moments in your busy day. Continuing the theme of sustainability and health, we are featuring the freshest of our garden ingredients (tomatoes, peppers, onions, zucchini and cilantro) all at their peak of freshness with a $5.95 Fiesta!
This week’s $5.95 Fiesta special: A soft taco filled with seasoned garden crumbles and purple potatoes, fresh made pico de gallo, lettuce and your choice of either cheddar or Daiya “cheez”, served with a seasonal side of black bean and corn fiesta salad.
