What is the food at the Monastery and on retreat like?
The Monastery is renowned for our delicious food! At the Monastery and at all of our retreats, we follow a low-fat vegetarian diet that is comprised of whole grains, proteins, and seasonal organic fruits and vegetables, a lot of which we grow in our organic gardens. We make our own granola and soymilk, and bake fresh bread daily. We also serve delightful desserts. As a general guideline we cannot accommodate special diets. We do offer non-dairy options at every meal. Our favorite recipes are available for sale in The Monastery Cookbook, available from Keep It Simple.
