Thank God It's Thursday

Thank God it's Thursday and thank God my blog is back just in time to help you make healthy choices when you're out this weekend. 

In spirit of the cooler weather, heading out to a toasty place like Coals Vines can be very appealing.  Coal Vines is famous for their brick oven pizzas, but they also have a menu filled with healthy options in addition to their great happy hour specials. Here are a few things you can order that are both the delicious and nutritious:


 Start with a salad with dressing on the side:

• Romaine Hearts Salad
• Mesculine Greens

Choose an entree or split a this healthy version of a Coal Vines pizza

• Lemon Sole Piccata- Lemon white wine, capers & sauteed spinach
• Whole Wheat Pasta of the day- *order with marinara sauce & steer clear of cream sauces*
• Marinara Pizza- Goat cheese, plum tomatoes, roasted & fresh garlic
• Add any veggies you want!

Wine Pairings

• If you order the sole, go with a white wine like Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc
• If you're having pizza or pasta with marinara sauce, choose a red wine

• Nutrition Tip: If you're drinking red, choose Pinot Noir- the grape it comes from it has the highest amount of antioxidants!

Cheers to the Weekend!
