As the new year brings fresh opportunities, why not kick it off by improving yourself and exploring some of the fantastic restaurants in Frisco?
My New Year’s resolution is to cook more, though I’m not sure how long that will last. Luckily, Frisco’s dining scene offers a variety of high-quality, healthy options.
No matter what your resolution may be, here’s Local Profile’s curated list of healthy dining options in Frisco:
Rachel's Kitchen
3620 The Star Blvd #1200, Frisco
Menu
The new addition to The Star, Rachel’s Kitchen, is serving up delicious, health-conscious food. The restaurant offers a diverse selection of dishes including my personal favorite, the vegetarian sandwich with goat cheese, eggplant, zucchini, roasted red peppers, yellow squash, red onions, roasted tomatoes and chipotle mayo. And before you ask, yes, Rachel’s Kitchen does have fantastic sourdough that will put your own starter to shame.
Ascension
3625 The Star Boulevard Suite 300, Frisco
Menu
While the menu features baked goods and decadent pasties, Ascension also has a wide variety of healthy options. From the hippie bowl with ancient grains, sweet potatoes, mushrooms and kale to the veggie sammie with eggs, avocado and green, this spot at The Star offers yummy options for any meal. If you haven’t yet kicked caffeine, try the burundi nkanda slow drip coffee with notes of apple, dates and crème brûlée.
Pure Poke
6750 Gaylord Pkwy #160, Frisco
Menu
For those with picky eaters (kids or spouses), build-your-own bowls will let you pick your favorite flavors. Pure Poke offers ingredients such as smoked chicken, Korean BBQ beef, tofu and more. Just pick your base, protein, toppings and spice. The restaurant also offers premade bowls if you need help deciding.
Jeff’s Vegan
3580 Preston Rd #107, Frisco
Menu
Jeff’s Vegan is serving up an entirely plant-based menu full of Asian, Thai and American flavors. Whether you’re craving a burger full of veggies or traditional kung pao, Jeff’s is the place to be. Spice lovers must try the pad thai.
The Nest
7777 Warren Parkway # 325, Frisco
Menu
For earlier risers, The Nest has several breakfast items; some of which are a bit indulgent, but most are fairly healthy. They have a whole menu section for toast that looks as pretty as it tastes, including beet hummus toast, avocado toast and salmon toast.
Unrefined Bakery
3411 Preston Rd Suite 8, Frisco
Menu
Healthy living does not mean dessert is off the table. Anne and Taylor, a mother-daughter team with food allergies like Celiac disease, have taken allergen-free baking to an entirely new level. Explore their selection of delicious offerings, crafted with only the highest-quality ingredients. They offer a variety of options to suit different dietary needs, including nut-free, tapioca-free, grain-free, sugar-free, yeast-free and paleo choices.
