Holy Cross Dining Services is providing plenty of tasty options this semester.
Thanks to your feedback, they’ve revamped their seasonal menus and added new items to meet the growing demand for vegetarian and vegan (non-meat and non-dairy) options. From roasted aromatic vegetables and quinoa to vegan hot dogs and vegan burritos, their fresh offerings are sure to satisfy any appetite. Dining Services has also added some ethnic Indian and South American dishes.
According to Catherine Flynn ’12, “The expansion of vegan meal options on campus is a great improvement. Not only are there a greater variety of options in Upper Kimball—like the soba noodles and tempeh add-ins at stir-fry or the vegan chicken patties at the grill—but now there are also tasty and convenient vegan meal deals at every station in Lower Kimball.”
And the new meals are not just for vegans and vegetarians. “Vegan options can appeal to a wide audience, such as the health and environmentally conscious—or someone just looking to try something new,” explains Flynn.
