GREEN GOURMET MEALS

GREEN GOURMET MEALS:

LICIOUS DISHES

Sylvia A. Thompson, Chef/Owner

Diet is an important means to achieve global environmental sustainability. A raw diet is the most eco-friendly way to nourish oneself. Consider having gourmet dishes like Kung Pao Veggies with Hawaiian Mangoes, Kafir Miso Pad Thai, Butternut Squash Curry “Rice” with Cranberries/Mango Chutney or the Mango Fizz beverage made of kombucha, mangoes, ginger and lemongrass to help the planet. It's healthy down to the Wicked Chocolate Tart, made from scratch using as much locally grown and/or organic raw vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds and no greasy oil traps needed. Sample Grab -N-Go or order a meal plan.

“Non-GMO, living, vibrant, local, organic, wild, sprouted nourishment from mother-earth.”
