Welcome Back - Spring 2012
We hope that you had a relaxing and fun winter break. As we begin the spring semester I wanted to share with you some of the exciting things that we have in store for you. In the fall our culinary tour took us to Italy & Spain. This semester, we'll continue to showcase the healthy & deli-cious cuisine of the Mediterranean. Starting with a stop at the Mediterranean Club in January & February we'll end our tour with a Greek salute to healthy eating in March, April & May. You will even have a chance to win a trip to your choice of Barcelona, Spain or Athens, Greece.
Through the semester, we will continue to provide you with information, resources and assistance with healthy dining options. Look out for our FOR YOUR HEALTH promotions for more information. Other events this spring will include observances of Black History & Asian Pacific Heritage Months. Green Rocks is back as we celebrate Earth Day. Lastly, we look forward to hosting all of those favorite events that have become tradition with the Framingham Framily! Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Opening Day, Cinco de Mayo and Sandbox.
Sodexo's Healthy Focus - Dining Today the Mediterranean Way
Sodexo cares about you and is committed to enhancing the health and wellness of all students, faculty, and staff on campus. Through our Better Tomorrow Plan, we are focused on providing innovative and exciting approaches to health and wellness through culinary innovation and nutrition programs. Our Mediterranean cuisine will provide varied and balanced food options at all campus sites that meet the new USDA guidelines for reducing sugar, fats and sodium.
Sodexo is bringing the Mediterranean to you! Mediterranean fare, renowned for its heart-healthy, exotic, and tasty dishes will be featured in Resident Dining. Our food will take you on a Mediterranean journey to Spain, Italy, and Greece where you can sample local cuisine and take part in fun events and activities. So sit back, relax, and enjoy our delicious and nutritious Mediterranean food and the journey Sodexo will take you on.
Mediterranean cuisine has long been renowned for its health benefits. The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans features this cuisine as a model for healthy, well balanced eating. This style of eating encourages plant-based foods such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes and nuts. It replaces saturated fats (butter) with heart healthy fats (olive and canola oil) and limits salt by using aromatic herbs and spices to flavor food. Plus, fish should be increased in your diet to twice a week while limiting red meat.
