Blenders in the Grass is responding to some of their customers’ dietary requests by adding a new menu of six dairy-free, gluten-free, plant-based smoothies to their classic lineup of smoothies, bowls, and juices.
“What we tried to do with these is make a focus for each drink,” said Scott Webber, one of the three owners of Blenders in the Grass. “Our other drinks we classify by flavor, but these drinks we classify by what they do.”
Blenders, which strives to provide a quick and nutritious alternative to the typical fast-food meal, teamed up with registered dietitian Jennifer Tasca to create the new offerings. “She started looking at our calories, fat, protein, and carbohydrate levels,” said Art Tracewell, another Blenders owner.
