With the sun shining & the weather being beautiful, it is the perfect time to cool off with a refreshing summer smoothie!
Long days outdoors can take a lot out of you, so it’s important to make sure you’re properly nourished. That’s why smoothies are a great solution! They’re great to cool you down and you can pack them with fresh fruits and veggies.
Grab your favorite produce items, a blender, and make a delicious summertime treat! Want some inspiration? Dessert like, fruity, or loaded with nutrients– Here are 5 smoothie recipes!
Super Duper Smoothie
Kale, blueberries, and oatmeal are all superfoods. Blending them together into smoothie form is not only nutritionally ideal, but it also makes a great-tasting drink. All the ingredients have a plethora of nutritional value, like the Cinnamon which helps support normal blood sugar.
Celery, spinach, and lemon are powerful foods that help bring your body back to a more balanced, alkalized (as opposed to acidic) state that promotes health and makes you less susceptible to getting sick.
Ummm. Yes. You read that title correctly. And the best part? This smoothie is totally breakfastable and incredibly filling. Truth is, there’s no chocolate chips, but raw cacao nibs which make it sweet and a good option!
This is a tasty, kid-friendly way to eat healthy fruit. Using frozen bananas & strawberries makes thick, dessert-like smoothies. They’re harder to blend, but worth it! Do yourself a favor and peel the bananas before you freeze them.
Make this delicious superfood-filled smoothie with super greens, spinach or any greens you have on hand. Delicious, fruity flavors make the addition of greens almost invisible!
Summer is in full swing and schedules are crazy. If you’re running around and just want a break, have a picnic! There is a subtle magic in the air when you get to sit down and enjoy the beautiful weather in nature with some good food!
You can play games, listen to music, or just take in the views and enjoy the company. The best part of a picnic is that it’s simple. You don’t need much and it can even be spontaneous! One thing you do need? Food!

This upcoming Sunday is Father’s Day! The day is dedicated to appreciating all the father figures in a person’s life. It is a day to acknowledge all the valuable lessons, laughs, and guidance they have given over the years. Maybe you’re firing up the grill and getting ready for a BBQ or doing whatever dad chooses! With Father’s Day this Sunday, I can’t help but think of two very important men in my life and in our company. I would like to take this opportunity to recognize my father, Robertino Presta, and grandfather, Angelo Caputo.
My father started working at Caputo’s at a very young age. My grandfather hired him because of his strength– especially his ability to throw and catch watermelon when unloading a truck. His efficiency in unloading the trucks as a teenager is a testament to his work ethic. He never hesitates to step in during any task. He embraces all challenges, coming up with unique and efficient ways to get past them.
He has helped us and the business grow, including taking us to levels that we never thought were imaginable. Each step and new chapter is still based on the foundation instilled in him by my grandparents and constantly re-established by my mom.
My dad has taught us the importance of hard work and dedication, always leading by example. His lessons span from how to properly display produce to how to clean tables the right way.
One of the things I feel most fortunate for is that my father believes in us, sometimes more than we believe in ourselves. He doesn’t make us feel like we cannot handle a situation. He uses his mistakes to encourage us to do the same. He helps to give us the tools we need to succeed and guides us towards the path of success. I have learned so much from not only my father, but my grandfather too.
This Father’s Day comes with an ache in my heart because of the gaping absence of an incredible man who was not only my grandfather, but an inspiration, another father, and a role model– Angelo Caputo.
My grandfather and our patriarch, Angelo Caputo, has always been one of my biggest inspirations. He was a true testament of a hard working, dedicated man. Our whole business is built on his blood, sweat, and tears.
He led a life of hard work and was the strongest man I knew. He was constantly faced with challenges, but never let anything stand between him and his goal.
He was always there for a story, a lesson, a phone call, or an esspressino date. He took the time to sit with us and pass along important tools and some of his wisdom. From teaching us how to clean up a produce display or telling us stories from his childhood, he was always there for us. The many lessons he taught us are beautiful memories that we will cherish and carry with us forever.
I am very lucky to have these two strong men as role models. My father and grandfather are incredible people whose sacrifices and hard work have led to many great achievements. I have the utmost respect for these two men and strive to make them proud.
Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers and father figures!
Busy schedules mean a shorter amount of time for things like meals. You need food on the table quickly so everyone can eat and go to their meetings, practices, or another obligation that comes up. We’ve been there and we believe that you should never have to sacrifice a quality meal for the sake of time. Our rotisserie chicken is a go-to on hectic days like these!
June 2nd is National rotisserie Chicken Day which makes it the perfect time to pick one up and taste for yourself!
Rotisserie chicken is a chicken cooked on a rotisserie, using direct heat to cook because the chicken is placed next to the heat source. The chickens are put onto rods that rotate to ensure optimal juiciness and cooking.
You can feel good about feeding it to your family. Our chickens are always fresh and never frozen. There are no added hormones or steroids and they are MSG free. In addition to these benefits, the taste is incredible!
Our chicken is known for its outstanding flavor and juiciness. We season it with a special herb rub. The special seasoning is made with a variety of different herbs and spices to give the chicken a unique and delicious flavor. It is our homemade blend that we took the time to test and develop until we got it to the special blend we were proud to feed you and your families!
We offer three different styles of rotisserie chicken– traditional, Mexican, and jerk. Each different style has a unique flavor profile you can’t get anywhere else!
We love using rotisserie chicken in recipes that call for shredded or pulled chicken. Like these chicken & cheese enchiladas! It’s delicious and simple!
Because the chicken is already cooked, it is one less step for you! Plus, you never have to sacrifice taste for convenience because our rotisserie chicken gives you both! We love to use rotisserie chicken in things like
tacos
buffalo chicken dip
chicken soup
pulled chicken sandwiches
tamales
chicken chili
… Basically any recipe that calls for shredded chicken
Labor Day Weekend is usually considered the end of summer for most people. Kids are back in school, the weather is going to start changing, and schedules are starting to get busy. We can’t let summer go without having another celebration! Create some more summer memories with your Labor Day BBQ.
Grilling is great because there are a variety of items you can grill– meats, fish, veggies, even fruit!
Here are 4 great-for-the-grill recipes!
Kabobs
Kabobs are a great way to incorporate many vegetables into your dinner without dirtying a lot of dishes. The grill adds great flavors to the protein as well as the vegetables. We also offer pre-marinated chicken and steak kabobs so all you have to do is put them on the grill and enjoy!
The grill adds a delightful, smoky flavor to this veggie! With artichokes being at their peak right about now, it’s a great veggie to incorporate into your barbecues! It takes a bit of prep, but is worth it for the taste and nutrients!
The flavor combination here along with the amazing contrast of textures is mind blowing. Lime, avocados, grilled shrimp and crunchy fried tortillas…yes please!
Want to keep it simple with little prep, but still want tons of flavor? Stop by our meat department for tons of options! A few that we think you cant miss? Any of our homemade sausage, stuffed burgers, marinated chicken breasts, and so many more options!
We hope everyone has a safe Memorial Day Weekend. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who are currently serving or have served our country, as well as their families. We especially remember the fallen soldiers who gave their lives to protect us. We remember and we honor today and every day.
