Salad
Ingredients:

Romaine
Lettuce
Red Cabbage
House Dressing*
*No processed (bottled) oils:

Main Plate
Pre-soaked Whole Grains and Beans
Why Soak:
Soaking improves flavors and textures
Shortens the cooking time
Aids in digestion and absorption of nutrients
Beans that are soaked are plump and soft, and are less likely to cause gas and digestive discomfort
Soaking them beforehand stimulates the sprouting process which allows several important chemical reactions to occur. This makes it easier for the digestive system to handle and also allows you to receive much more nutritional benefit.

Kale
Collard Greens
Bok Choy Greens
Turnip Greens
Mustard Greens
Carrot Greens
Radish Greens
