Your favorite time of the week has arrived, my weekly menu drop. 📣 Summer is here, cool down with Kind Café and Catering…Beat the heat and order this week's crisp and refreshing menu! ☀
Kick off July in style with arugula from my garden, freshly shucked corn, mixed with basmati rice, toasted pecans, and a tangy vinaigrette. It might sound like an odd combination, but trust me, it is delicious and is always one of my go to salads when I am entertaining! Consider ordering an extra pint because you’ll want to come back for seconds!
Ready to jazz up your lunchtime routine? Grab a baguette and some of my zesty Chickpea Artichoke salad, and you'll be the envy of all at the lunch table!
The perfect side for any holiday weekend BBQ is potato salad, skip the eggs and mayo for this Dill Potato Salad! Dijon mustard and dill give this simple side dish a zesty and herbaceous flair. Think about ordering an extra pint because it gets addictive real quick!
Back by popular demand, my Just Egg Savory Tarts! With 5 different fillings to choose from, get a half dozen of each and store the extras in your freezer! 1-2 of these tarts make the perfect savory breakfast or brunch. A recent customer called these bundles of yumminess, "Seriously heavenly." Try my newest flavor, the Black Bean Burrito Tart! 🍽
Visit kindcafeandcatering.com to place your order now. Due to the holiday week I am offering an earlier than usual delivery option; place your orders by noon on Friday for delivery on Saturday. 🛍

Summer is here, cool down with Kind Café and Catering…Beat the heat and order this week's crisp and refreshing menu! ☀
When I start making my Tomato Bean Salad with Dill, it means Summer has arrived! Fresh tomatoes and dill pretty much scream my favorite season to me. Add in some hearty white beans and a few other goodies, and this salad makes a delicious light lunch. Order an extra pint for later, you’ll want extra! 🍅🥒
If you like crabcakes, you will love these artichoke cakes! I made them once for my dad and he was convinced they were crabcakes until he finally believed me that they weren’t. Enjoy them with my zesty homemade remoulade sauce by themselves, or serve them on a bed of lettuce and turn them into a salad. Either way, delicious! 🍴
