The festival also caters to those with special dietary restrictions. There are many items on this year's menu that include gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options.
Grilled Asparagus Caesar Salad — Brushed with Caesar dressing, croutons, and Parmesan cheese, this salad is a returning fan favorite that is easy to make. I'm not usually a big asparagus eater, but this really knocked my socks off. I was pleasantly surprised and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for vegetarian options.
Spiced Oumph! on Pita With Avocado Hummus and Garlic Sauce — This dish has a level of power to match its name. Similar to a shawarma, this vegan dish is sure to give your spirit a little oomph of its own.
White Cheddar Lager Soup in a Mini Boudin Sourdough Boule — This vegetarian option will warm your heart. I like bread bowls because they make me feel like I'm getting a little extra and there's nothing to clean up after!
Verlasso Sustainable Salmon Peruvian Poke With Cucumber-Lime Salad and Aji Verde Salsa — This dish may have a very long name, but it packs a lot of flavor, so it needs it! This gluten-free option is available at the Peppers Cali-Ente marketplace kiosk.
