Yay for Vegan Options!

So today I cruised into Cafe Ventanas looking for something healthy and balanced on the lunch menu. Cafe V definitely delivered with their delicious-looking Vegan Grilled Portobello Ratatouille option.



It was only $4.95, and looked pretty hearty. I added a side of rice, which showcased the beautiful display of peppers, mushrooms, onions, zucchini, and tomatoes that covered the Portobello mushroom underneath.





Being that I was out to lunch with my fellow EcoNaut, Jessica, I told her how good the dish was. She decided to try it out herself! There was no doubt that the meal had an incredibly fresh and tangy flavor that complimented the herb seasoning, but I was eager to hear whether it was up to par from the ultimate Vegan herself.














Jess did give the Portobello and veggie dish the official Vegan stamp of approval!














An additional side, such as rice or tortillas, really made the Ratatoullie a legitimate tummy-filler. It was so rich in flavor that I would recommend it to anyone interested in an all-around-fantastic meal. :)

Great job Cafe V! Keep those awesome veg dishes coming!

Choose to replenish your body with food that keeps it going, not junk that slows it down. Dining Services makes it easy!

Stay happy and healthy : )
