Our food is available to retreat house guests at The Divine Life Playhouse in East Nashville and wherever our old truck "Dorthy Gertrude" drops her tailgate. We make up a batch of mason jar meals every week and they are here until they are eaten. Check our facebook page or instagram feed for the latest news about when we have fresh eats for you.

Heat Wave Arugula
Jalapeño Corn Salad
with Sweet Dressing
Fresh corn, jalapeno, red onions, cherry tomatoes, arugula, blue cheese, cilantro
​
When the temperatures rise and the hot peppers sprout, we love to spice things up with a delicious summer salad. There’s nothing like fresh corn straight from the cob. We mix in lots of fresh arugula and summer cherry tomatoes to make this spicy favorite as healthy as it is scrumptious. Drizzled with a homemade jalapeno vinaigrette and topped with chunks of creamy blue cheese and fresh cilantro, this is one of our few menu items with dairy milk. We source high quality cheese and pay careful attention to the treatment of the animals of the farm. If you want a vegan version, just let us know, as we have some on hand for those who prefer to skip the dairy. This is a crowd-pleasing summer salad and the spicy pairs well with a fresh lemonade.

Fresh Green Wraps

Fresh Green Wraps are a high nutrient bundle of vegetables, and wrapped in collard greens rather than sandwiched between bread. If you like wraps and sandwiches but hope to avoid the grains and want to get in as many vegetables as possible in one bite, this is a great choice.
They are tasty and delicious dipped in our mana dressing.

Gardener’s Black Eyed Pea Salad
Black-eyed peas; red, orange, and yellow peppers; red onion; cherry tomatoes
​
It doesn’t get more down home than black-eyed peas, but we all know that their distinct, earthy goodness is nothing short of a humble delicacy. We add lots of colorful bell peppers, a bit of red onion, and plenty of tomatoes to bring all of the garden’s highlights into this seasonal favorite. We finish this one off with our in-house balsamic vinaigrette, planting just the right amount of sweet and tanginess to this recipe.

Dressings
​
​
Vegetables are delicious in their own right, but to create flavor explosions for your taste buds, we concoct homemade dressings to really add a pop of goodness to our mason jar meals, chopped salads, and green wraps.
​
Mana Dressings
The secret to our mason jar meals is in the dressings. Vegetables are delicious, but when our homemade concoctions are poured in, the flavors gets multiplied.
​
These mana dressings are rich, thick, spreadable consistency that can be added to salads and wraps to add flavor and fulfillment.
Because they are made with nuts they have dense nutritious fats that leave you feeling more "full" when eating vegetables.
​
All dressings are Vegan, Gluten Free
Pour Over Dressings
These pour over dressings are a liquid consistency that can be drizzled on top or stirred in any chopped salad to add a boost of flavor.
All of our dressings are made in house with love. Fresh citrus juice, high quality grape seed or olive oils, fresh green herbs, and seasonings come together in a tiny bottle but give a big boost of flavor to a plant - centric life.
We are still working on preserving these so you can take them home with you.
We use them in our mason jar meals & we will be generous with taste testing until these are available to you for your own kitchen.
