The end of summer is upon us, but don’t be blue! After fresh fruit from the Summer season comes the warm and delicious flavours of Fall. Our season inspired feature menu will give you a delectable reason to fall in love with seasonal favourites! Fresh Healthy Cafe’s Roasted Turkey and Cran Panini and Pumpkin Spice Smoothie are a great way to start off the season.

September is here, school has started for the kids and soon enough Fall will be here. There’s still enough time and sunshine to get in a few last Summer activities. Here’s a Summer bucket list we’ve made to help you get the most out of the time left.

Cashew milk is the delicious and creamy dairy substitute which has recently replaced almond milk for many. While both have very similar nutritional values, there is one big difference between the two.

Summer is here and with it, iced coffee season. We’re thrilled to announce the newest healthy addition to select Fresh Healthy Cafes, our delectable cold brew coffee.

We’re not talking about your average iced coffee here, but our 12-hour in house cold brew that takes summer coffee drink to the next level!

Most people have heard by now, just how great kale is for you but only eat it because of this. Let’s be honest here. When was the last time you heard somebody say “mmmm Kale is so yummy, I want a nice big bowl of it!”

Kale is a relation in the family of cabbage or the “Brassica Oleracea” species. Much like its cousins, brussel sprouts and broccoli this family has gotten a fairly bad rap over the years. Unless it’s smothered in melted cheese, good luck trying to get a kid to eat some Brassica Oleracea for dinner tonight!

There also may be some blame that isn’t entirely kale’s fault. Did you know there are ways to alchemize this tough ingredient?  Here are a few tips to make kale taste better and get the most nutrition out of it.

We all have those moments where we crave our favourite guilty pleasure. For most, it tends to be something sweet like a big bowl of ice cream or chocolate cake craving that hits out of nowhere. Often the cause of those cravings can be due to an unbalanced day, especially if one of your meals was processed food or high in starch. Eating properly balanced meals not only gives your body energy and fuel for the day but also can help to prevent sugar lows which can cause cravings.

Here are a few tips to help combat sugar cravings naturally.

Fresh Healthy Cafe is thrilled to announce the news of our newest franchise owners Michael and Emily!

At Fresh Healthy Cafe, our menu is specially created to offer customers healthy and convenient choices with their meals, while still keeping things delicious. With the warmer weather, most of us have a shift in appetite. Heavy meals are out. Fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables are in! Salads are a great choice for lighter meals but don’t always pack a powerful nutritional punch to give you energy. Our Power Bowls are the perfect mix of smoothie meets parfait. The ultimate superfood blend. What by the way, actually is a superfood? Well, it’s a non-medical term used to describe foods which are high in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. The best of the best you might say.

We’re thrilled to announce the opening of the newest Fresh Healthy Cafe franchise, in the heart of downtown Boise. We want to welcome the newest additions to the Fresh family, Zaira and Eric. Next time you’re in the downtown area, be sure to drop in to meet the team, check out our healthy choice menu and grab lunch or a healthy fresh squeezed juice! A little bit about Zaira and Eric…

Fresh Healthy Cafe reFresh Juice Program is now available at select locations! Whether you’re looking for a full on juice cleanse, or to add a healthy boost of vitamins and nutrients into your diet; our all natural, fresh squeezed juices offer nutritional options for everyone.

Juice Cleanse

A juice cleanse is meant to reset eating habits, support your body’s natural detox and kickstart a healthy diet. Most commonly done over a three day period by replacing heavy solid foods with healthy, nutrient-packed fruits and vegetables, your body absorbs energy from the juice. Selecting a balanced juice cleanse program is very important. Just drinking one type of juice combination won’t give you all the vitamins and nutrients that your body needs on a daily basis.
