Healthy Eating

Providing you with healthy options is something your dining team proudly does every day. We help you select delicious, nutritious and satisfying meals, snacks and desserts by highlighting well-balanced menu choices and providing nutritional information and tips to help you make choices that fit your needs.

Mindful

Creating a balanced college experience helps develop habits that will continue through post-grad life. Mindful is Sodexo's health and wellness dining initiative to help you make healthy choices by offering manageable wellness tips, campus events, nutrition education and delicious recipes to help students maintain their overall health while they are with us at Trevecca Nazarene University.

Mindful offerings served in Apple Dining Hall meet stringent nutrition criteria based on the United States Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Each meal part is limited in calories, has fewer than 30% of calories as fat, fewer than 10% of calories as saturated fat, and is restricted in sodium, and cholesterol. Chefs in our test kitchen develop recipes to meet these criteria in a delicious fashion that helps you make healthy choices second nature.

Look for the purple Mindful icon on the Apple Dining Hall menu signage!
