Saturday, October 01, 2011
October is a festive time of year with Oktoberfest and Halloween.
  • Wellness

Wellness: October mean pumpkins, apples and beer. Some of my favorite dishes this time of year include: Apple pie, strudel, cobbler and apple cider. Apples are a super food packed with vitamin C and a rich source in antioxidant compounds. Pumpkin spiced hummus, pumpkin muffins and pies and roasted pumpkin. Pumpkins are packed with vitamins A & C. 

Whole GRAINS! Look for them on the Tuesday, Cafe menu, salad and/ or side.
