Meatless Mondays in Dining Services

Calling all vegetarians! You asked for more vegetarian options and, among other efforts, Dining Services offers Meatless Mondays at every restaurant location. At the grill of each restaurant every Monday, you will find all vegetarian choices.

Hey, meat-eaters! Don't be shy - try a meatless option. You might find that you love it!

Pictured above: the Chana Masala from today's Meatless Monday at OceanView Terrace on Marshall College. This dish is vegetarian and healthy - it's high in fiber and a good source of protein from the main ingredient, chickpeas.

LiveWell Lunch today at Plaza Cafe


Today's LiveWell option at Plaza Cafe is the Curried Chicken with Indian Dahl. The picture here is of my lunch today. I had rice and steamed veggies on the side with my chicken and dahl (lentils). This dish is high in fiber and protein...and it's tasty!

If you are vegan or vegetarian, you can choose just the Dahl (which we make separately from the chicken).
