A better tomorrow starts today

For Your Health

Being well and eating well means becoming aware of choices and making the right decisions to achieve a better today and a better tomorrow.  Your Sodexo dining team is committed to offering you a wide range of options for a healthy dining experience.  From recipes that include the most nutritious mix of ingredients to offering educational resources for positive lifestyle habits, healthy options are the result of a team dedicated to advancing the well-being of the entire campus community.

Another important part of our focus on health and wellness is the use of seasonal menus, featuring fresh and healthy ingredients - many of which are grown by local or regional farmers.  Every season has its own unique produce that is showcased in delicious signature dishes to highlight the distinct flavors and natural appeal of seasonal items.

For students who have special dietary and nutritional needs we have informational resources and customized menus to address your needs.  These menus meet the strictest compliance standards, without sacrificing flavor, texture or presentation.

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.

Enjoy our culinary journey with Sodexo to the Mediterranean. We will begin in Spain with El Toro de la Noche and feature delectable cuisine that will include: paella, chorizo sausages, gazpacho, tapas, plus much more.  After Spain, our next stop will highlight Italian Cuisine with La Famiglia.  You will enjoy favorites including vegetable lasagna, shrimp scampi risotto, chicken breast Florentine, orecchiette with broccoli and chickpeas, in addition to many other specialties.  As our journey continues, we will explore the cuisine of the Mediterranean beaches  at the Mediterranean Club and end our culinary adventures in Greece withEvexia.  Our journey will encompass the delicious, tantalizing, and healthy foods of the Mediterranean.
