Approved Menu Options
Crow Wing Energized believes that everyone deserves to live a healthy and happy life, and that the food we eat plays a vital role in achieving that goal.
We are working with area restaurants to create healthy menu options that would be Crow Wing Energized “approved!”
We know area restaurants are passionate about serving delicious and satisfying food, and we want to showcase their culinary skills and creativity while promoting a healthy lifestyle.
What are the criteria for a Crow Wing Energized approved dish?
• Include as many vegetables as possible. Vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber, and can help lower the risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers.
• Under 600 calories. Calories are a measure of energy, and consuming more calories than we burn can lead to weight gain and obesity, which are associated with many health problems. By keeping menu options under 600 calories, customers maintain a healthy weight and energy balance.
• Most importantly, be delicious! We have encouraged restaurants to create mouthwatering dishes that appeal to a variety of tastes and preferences, using their imagination and culinary expertise to create a dish that is not only healthy, but also tasty and satisfying.
