St. Francis wants you to eat your veggies

· Cauliflower Soup – crisp caper, crouton, heirloom cauliflowers
· Spinach Salad – spinach, pickled onion, olive, egg
· Kale Caesar – local kale, crouton, parmesan, caesar dressing
· Beets – citrus vinaigrette, shaved red onion, almonds, arugula

And some tried and true veggie favorites:
· Sweet Corn Polenta
· Lil Romaine Salad
· Seasonal Fruit Salad
· Seasonal Veggies for Kiddos – with buttermilk dressing dip
· Omelette – wood roasted mushrooms, fresh herbs, goat cheese, toast
· Farmer’s Market Frittata – seasonal vegetables, cheddar, arugula
