It's that time of the month again... SIGN UP FOR DELICIOUS LUNCH DELIVERIES! Our July Lunch Delivery menu is lookin' right! We still have some availability for the last weeks of July. E-mail us soon to get delicious, healthy meals delivered right to you!
These are our scrumptious meals from week one! We even used kale stems as the skewers so that all parts were edible and healthy while also producing less waste. A win all around! We are really inspired by last month's positive feedback to provide healthy lunches for the community. Alli and I try to live a very health supportive lifestyle ( I somehow tricked her into cutting out refined carbs, cheese, sugar, and more with me to prepare for my upcoming nuptials) and we are very pleased to be sharing meals with our clients that we eat on a regular basis.
Speaking of recipes that we adore on the regular.... we want to share one of our favorites with our readers...

Baked fries that are not potatoes. These seasoned, roasted green beans and carrots will impress guests and will also make a wonderful side dish at your next dinner party. Alli and I featured this dish on our June lunch menu and it was a big hit. We are always trying to come up with recipes that make us excited to eat healthy, so when we created this dish, we were grinning from ear to ear. I believe that there is no one on this earth who loves carrots more than Allison Weishaus. There is not a day that goes by where I don't catch her hiding in the fridge sneaking a few carrots in her mouth like a little bunny rabbit. Some people sneak sweets, but my looney tune business partner sneaks carrots. "ALLI! WE NEED THOSE FOR OUR CLIENTS!" I scream at her on the daily, but nothing, and I do mean nothing, comes between Alli and her carrots. So I was pleased when we came up with a recipe that features one of Alli's favorite vegetables.
This side dish goes with nearly any entree and it's a great accompaniment all year long. Three words: Side. Dish. Tonight.
