Meals at Polestar
There are usually a variety of options that are suitable for most dietary preferences (vegan, gluten-free, low carb, etc). Before your arrival, we will notify the kitchen of your dietary preferences, and you are always more than welcome to sign up for cooking a meal or two a week for the community, if that is something you enjoy!
Here is a typical day of what our meals look like at Polestar:
BREAKFAST:
- hot grain (most often oats but sometimes polenta or amaranth) with all the fixings – nuts, dried fruit, honey, etc
- yogurt
- fresh fruit (papaya, banana, lilikoi, soursop from the land)
- sometimes eggs + potatoes + toast
LUNCH: ( best meal of the day in our opinion!)
- lentils or beans
- roasted or sauteed veggies from the land
- grain (rice, quinoa, etc)
- salad w/ avocado, sprouts, dressing
- coco kimchee or cocokraut (our specialties)
DINNER: (varies depending on who is cooking)
- can be as simple as soup
- sometimes it’s a casserole with a dairy free option
- we occasionally have sushi or pizza or other fun nights!
