Beginning at 4pm, Mondays

Meatless Mondays is an international movement to help people reduce their meat consumption by 15% to improve personal health and the health of the planet.

Did you know that on average, Americans consume 8 ounces of meat per day–45% more than the USDA recommends. Going meatless once a week can reduce your risk of chronic preventable conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. It can also help limit your carbon footprint and save precious resources like fresh water and fossil fuel.

Multiple studies have shown that periodic health prompts lead to positive behavior change.  Monday is the beginning of the week, making it the perfect time to reevaluate our choices and set our intentions for the coming days.  With a Meatless Monday, you have a scheduled, recurring reminder to start your week off on a nutritious note.  And if this Monday passes you by, next week is another opportunity to focus on health!

We offer at least one delicious meat-free appetizer and entree every Monday.  Come on in and go Meatless Monday!
