“Guide for sophisticated vegetarian dining”

March 7, 2012 Field of Greens: Houston, TX

Ever eat badly for a few days? Coffee for breakfast, pecan pie for lunch? ME NEITHER. But people who have: get yourselves to Field of Greens.

It’s a simple, unfussy joint in a Houston shopping center with lots of options for pescetarians, vegetarians, vegans, raw foodies, and anyone who needs an infusion of vegetables. Lots of burgers, salads, pastas, as well as a few juices and smoothies.

After a few minutes of my usual deer in headlights routine (vegetarians don’t always have so many choices!), I went with the waiter’s recommendation, tofu quiche salad. And a carrot kale juice.

The dish looked great, and the tofu tasted like a crustless quiche. It was filling, and, especially with a dab of the garlic soy sauce, delish. I loved the bed of fresh greens and my juice.

At the next table, people in scrubs were discussing flax seed. People who know about food and nutrition eat here, OK? So should you, especially after a week of nutritional lapses.
