Meals
Since we are committed to a smaller carbon footprint, healthy meals made with ingredients from our own farm at Blue Osa are mainly vegan. We rely on our garden and those other local and regional farms to provide us with what is seasonally available. Our cooks make a variety of recipes using this food from the Blue Osa harvest or received from our fellow farmers. We typically provide egg options for breakfast (or lunch) and meat options (usually chicken) 2 or 3 times a week at dinner. We always provide fruit throughout the day for those who need more food, and smoothies/cold-pressed juices may be purchased at the Juice Bar. If you think that you will be hungry at other times during the day, please bring extra snacks with you.
We DO NOT provide individually cooked meals and we DO NOT provide kosher meals. You should also remember that while we are able to serve some gluten-free options, we are not a gluten-free kitchen.
