The Green Plate in the Admont Abbey kitchen

The Green Plate in the Admont Abbey kitchen

Wednesday, 21 December 2022

Cauliflower soup, colourful alloyed semolina soup, lentil vegetables with stuffed cabbage and endive salad with potatoes, roast chicken leg with rice and mixed vegetables, spinach dumplings with coleslaw, coconut mango tart, apple sauce, buttermilk mousse - what do these dishes have in common? They are delicious green plate dishes on the menu of the Admont Abbey kitchen, which are balanced and bring variety to the menu.

The "Green Plate", awarded by Styria vitalis since 2011, recognises healthy choices in communal catering. In other words, dishes that fulfil the criteria of balanced natural cuisine. For example, seasonal vegetables are an integral part of the Green Plate dishes. There are also fresh salads and fruit every day.

A holistic view of health

In addition to the monks, the Admont Abbey kitchen also caters for senior citizens and children in the crèche, kindergarten and leisure centre. A balanced, healthy menu is served daily, making a decisive contribution to the quality of life of the guests.

Something for every taste - even for meat lovers and those with a sweet tooth

The aim is to provide healthy and tasty alternatives that invite vegetable lovers to eat more often. Wiener schnitzel and roast pork are by no means forbidden, but should not be on the menu too often. The focus should be on the personal responsibility of the diners and not on forced gratification. As part of the Green Plate, choices should be created so that diners who want to eat consciously also have the opportunity to do so.

Free further training for the kitchen team focussing on wholefoods and lots of vegetables, an annual menu check and comprehensive feedback as well as support for changes are just some of the services offered as part of the Green Plate.

Around 260,000 Styrians eat out every day. The aim of the Green Plate is to offer them a healthy alternative and choice. From kindergartens to retirement homes, there is a need for contemporary, needs-based and, above all, high-quality catering.
