Hi Everyone!
Siler City has a new alternative to hamburgers and fries! I visited Mina Bean’a for lunch and loved it. I had the Mina Bean’a chef salad. It had lots of ham and chicken on a bed of mixed greens!
I stress nutrition in my chiropractic practice and co-taught a nutrition class at the Western Chatham Senior Center in which we explained that iceburg lettuce has no nutritional value. It can not be counted as a vegetable since it has no nutrients!
Hurray! A great salad without iceberg lettuce!
The food was wonderful and the owners are very nice. They are experiencing a few organizational dificulties as they start their new business, but best wishes to them! I will be there for lunch at least a couple times a week. At $5.00 for the large salad, I can’t make it at home for much less.
And (don’t tell my patients) but the wild berry pie was to die for!
They also have paninis–grilled sandwiches, quiches, soups and pastries.
I plan to send all my nutrition patients and weight loss classes to try them out.
