NUTRITION AT FRIENDS SEMINARY

Our daily meals for growing bodies focus on optimal nutritional impact. Offerings consist of a wide variety of protein sources (both animal and plant based), whole grains, legumes, dairy, healthy fats, and the freshest fruits and vegetables. Menus are designed to reflect seasonal availability, holidays, and the special dietary needs of the Friends Seminary community.  

All menu items are prepared fresh daily by our full-time staff, who work to oversee that all preparation meets or exceeds our professional standards. Our menus follow our food philosophy and:  

  • Reflect the season and Friends Seminary community’s preferences 

  • Balance between nourishing and popular 

  • Celebrate holidays and school events

  • Utilize standard recipes to provide consistent flavor and quality 

  • Are built upon a rotation for variety and interest   

MEAL INNOVATIONS

Monitoring food trends helps us enhance our lunch offerings. We always find creative ways to infuse our meals with the latest in culinary trends from noodle bowls to specialty salads to pressed paninis and bold burritos.  

Our goal is to provide options for everyone and take each student’s requirements into account. Vegetarian and vegan options are always available, as are other dietary preferences.
