Corner Bakery Cafe Offers Made-to-Order Lent-Friendly Meals for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

DALLAS, March 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- While the Lenten season traditionally restricts meat on Fridays, there's no need for meals to be any less satisfying. Corner Bakery Cafe offers a variety of flavorful Lent-friendly menu options for breakfast, lunch and dinner throughout the 40 days of Lent and the entire year.

Guests who start their days at Corner Bakery Cafe can choose from many options ranging from savory to sweet and dine in or to-go. The Farmer's Scrambler is a hearty breakfast of scrambled eggs, peppers, mushrooms, onions and cheddar cheese served with a side of harvest toast and oven-roasted potatoes or fresh fruit. For a sweet start to the day, the Berry Almond Swiss Oats features a large bowl of Chilled Swiss Oats topped with toasted almonds and fresh strawberries and blueberries and is served with a homemade raisin pecan sweet crisp. The Morning Rush is perfect for grab-and-go guests and pairs a cup of hand-roasted coffee with your choice of a freshly baked muffin or bagel with cream cheese.

"Just because a guest is observing Lent does not mean they should have to sacrifice flavor," said Corner Bakery Cafe CEO Frank Paci. "Whether dining in or taking your meal to go, Corner Bakery Cafe has an expansive selection of Lent-friendly options for breakfast, lunch and dinner that are naturally delicious and satisfying. This year, we even added a new Linguine Alfredo and Tuna Melt for our Lent observing guests."

This season's new Linguine Alfredo Pasta features linguine pasta with garlic cream sauce, Parmesan cheese and parsley and is served with toasted garlic bread. The new Tuna Melt features Albacore tuna salad, Roma tomatoes and cheddar cheese on grilled sourdough bread. Both items are available for a limited time only at participating locations during the Lenten season.

In addition to new items, Corner Bakery Cafe boasts many Lent-friendly meal choices for lunch and dinner from its signature panini to fresh salads. The California Grille Panini is a perfect mixture of grilled zucchini, marinated artichoke hearts, roasted tomatoes and pesto with fresh spinach and provolone cheese on grilled Harvest bread. For guests seeking lighter fare, the Spinach Sweet Crisp Salad features baby spinach, freshly sliced strawberries, oranges, grapes, cranberries, green onions and creamy goat cheese with raisin pecan sweet crisps and strawberry vinaigrette.

Just as Corner Bakery Cafe doesn't sacrifice flavor in its Lent-friendly meals, the same goes for healthier options. The brand invites calorie-conscious guests to mix and match salads, soups and sandwiches to find the meal that is right for them. The brand's website features a 100 Under 600 calculator (www.cornerbakerycafe.com/100under600/) where guests can create a new favorite craveable combination under 600 calories.
