Soup and Salad Bar
 As
part of the College Avenue Center’s philosophy to promote healthy aging
among older adults, the Center offers a soup and salad bar as a
lunchtime meal choice. This lunchtime alternative is funded by a grant
from the County of San Diego, Aging & Independence Services.
The soup and salad bar is available Monday–Friday, featuring all the
fixings for a nutritious and flavorful mid-day lighter meal: soup, salad
greens, fruit, vegetables, dressings, protein, and bread. With the
salad bar, the Center is able to offer both a hot and cold kosher lunch
option as well as fresh produce, seasonal menu items, and vegetarian
meal options. The soup and salad bar also is available to go.
