Need some help? APEX Restaurant & Market Solutions has you covered! Use these tips to serve light office meals this summer.
3 Top Benefits of Stocking Light Meals in Your Kansas City Micro Market
As the summer heats up, more people want to eat lighter fare. Fresh, healthy office food keeps employees cool and well-hydrated. Some of the best foods to stock in your micro market or St. Louis office pantry are salads, wraps, nuts, fresh fruits, and veggies.
Light summer office cuisine has many health benefits, including:
- Improved Hydration: Fruits and veggies contain more water. Therefore, they make it easier to stay hydrated.
- Increased Energy: Heavy meals can drag you down. Lighter dishes and snacks help employees stay fueled and focused all day long.
- Better Digestion: Lighter options are easier on our digestive systems, reducing the risk of discomfort and tiredness.
Do you want to offer more wraps or salads in your Kanas City break room? Here are a few tips.
