Staying Happy & Healthy at the Beach

Hey everyone,   Life at the beach is pretty sweet… but at times we all get stuck in ruts, feel run down and end up getting caught up in the hustle and bustle.  Here are some great ways to get back to the feeling that - this is paradise!    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Eat well – It’s not always easy to eat right… but there are some great options around town if you look for them:

 
Picasso Bar & Restaurante has some awesome hummus!  Served with carrots, cucumber & pita bread, Picasso’s hummus is a great snack if you are looking for something light and refreshing.
 
La Vita e’ Bella’s Chef Salad is stacked with delicious veg. The chef Salad is a large portion, reasonably priced and serves up both fresh and grilled vegetables.
 
California Burger has more than great burgers. Try their chicken salad, or grilled chicken and veg. for a lighter option.
 
Cook fresh food. Head out the local community markets and pick up some fresh locally grown ingredients. Here are some monthly markets to mark on your calendar:
