Community Convo - Playing With Plants

Along with the many things that Covid-19 has brought to our lives is a broken meat supply chain, and recent shortages of meat all across the country. While some may look at this and feel frustration, we are looking at this as another opportunity to focus on our health and wellness by expanding our plant based repertoire. It’s no secret that a plant based diet provides numerous health benefits, not to mention all of the creative and delicious meals that can be put together with these simple, wholesome ingredients. We’re taking playing with plants to a whole new level!

A lot of people tend to think vegetarians and vegans only eat salad. And while there are tons of delicious meals that are indeed salads, there are also way more other options, hot and cold alike, to satisfy even the most discerning of tastebuds. In fact, our plant based menu items are some of the most popular options among vegetarians and meat eaters alike!

Our silky Pea Soup is one of the highlights of the whole menu. It is typically poured table side, and paired with roasted garlic and parmesan to really amp up the creaminess. Our Mushroom & Zucchini pizza is another customer favorite, and topped with truffle oil to make those earthy, umami flavors truly pop.

Live too far away for takeout or delivery? No problem! There are tons of recipes online to get you started on making your own plant based meals. A simple pizza crust makes it super easy to get creative with your toppings. No zucchini? Try caramelized onions! No mushrooms? Try roasted artichokes! It’s so easy to turn these earthy ingredients into savory, out of this world culinary experiences. And there’s no better opportunity to start playing with plants than right now. Let us know what you come up with!
