NorthPointe Woods is loving spring!


Spring is here which means fresh and vibrant vegetables! To promote April's Superfood - Leafy Greens - we held two events this week that featured our favorite folate-friendly vegatables! Our first was an afternoon snack for the residents: power smoothies with kale.
The smoothies were prepared with all fresh and natural ingredients: kale, blueberries, bananas and crushed pineapple with honey (a natural sweetener).  Those mindful of their diets were pleased to hear that they were 'gluten and lactose conscious' drinks; they were even more pleased to drink them!

Our second event involved hosting a local senior newspaper. They enjoyed a Superfood filled lunch with steak and sauteed mushroom wraps with spinach herb shells and a side of spinach salad with dried cranberries, almonds tossed in our homemade poppyseed vinaigrette dressing. The dessert did not contain any leafy greens, but they still enjoyed Sandra's homemade pumpkin pie!
