The healthy food shop and coffee bar is offering produce, fresh-pressed juices and grab-and-go meals tailored to the dietary needs of people with chronic diseases.
Neighbors can find fresh produce from local farms, nutritional supplements, wellness shots and fresh, cold-pressed juices at affordable prices.
“These are meals made with lots of love and high nutritional value,” said Esmeralda Lorenzo, project manager for Cocina Rx. Neighbors can pick up meals designed to meet the dietary goals of people with chronic diseases while offering tasty and culturally relevant options, said chef Carlos Gonzalez.
Neighbors will be able to find a wide selection of entrees and side dishes with high protein content and fiber in appropriate portion sizes, Gonzalez said. They’re a grab-and-go alternative for neighbors rather than skipping a meal or choosing fast food, Gonzalez said.
Cocina Rx Market will be open 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Friday.
The coffee bar will open at 8 a.m., offering coffee from local roasters Aroma Café and Freysan, which use Mexican coffee beans.
