Carrot juice is one of my favorite beverages, right along with lemonade and herbal iced tea with honey. If you drink carrot juice cold, and close your eyes, it can taste a bit like chocolate milk. Try it sometime. Carrot juice is very sweet and is excellent along with a salad, couscous, hummus, or a sandwich.
Try some delicious carrot juice at the Naturally Yours Grocery deli.

Couscous is a simple pasta made of tiny pellets of semolina dough that are rolled in wheat flour.
It's a mild but interesting tasting dish that is served under meat or vegetable stew. Couscous is popular in the Mediterranean, Africa, and Middle East. It is often eaten plain, but it is also mixed with garbanzo beans, raisins, carrots, onion, celery, potatoes, and other ingredients.

Olive oil has many health benefits. It is so medicinally powerful, this substance is commonly used as a symbol of the Holy Spirit in the Bible, as in anointing with oil for healing, and other instances.

Balsamic vinegar is a delicious component of many dishes and makes a great salad dressing combined with olive oil. Authentic Balsamic vinegar comes from Modena, Italy, and is made of Trebbiano grape. Even the name "balsamic" has healthy implications of being therapeutic as a balm or soothing medical substance. The word "vinegar" means a "sour wine".

You just can't go wrong when you have lunch at the Naturally Yours Grocery deli.
Yesterday, I picked the Falafel Wrap with vegan chickpea patty, hummus, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, sprouts, and carrots. You may also have plain yogurt mixed into it, but I skipped that.

As I have posted before, my favorite sandwich at Naturally Yours Grocery deli is the Veggie Hummus.
I normally get it on multi-grain bread, but today, upon advice by one of the friendly and knowledgeable staff, I was persuaded to try it as a roll-up, or as they call it, a wrap. Wraps come in whole wheat and spinach. Mine was a whole wheat wrap.
