Genghis Grill offers recipes Featuring Heart Healthy Dining Options
- Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the nation’s number one killer. Bad eating habits can lead to increased risk factors for several types of heart disease. Genghis Grill created a unique program to help consumers find healthy dining options.
- To meet the criteria for the program, Genghis Grill had its recipes analyzed by a registered dietitian. Each ingredient in the recipe was checked based on dietary guidelines from the American Heart Association. Following these guidelines, each ingredient has levels of calories, total fat, saturated fat, fiber and sodium. Trans fats are not permitted in any of the recipes endorsed by the program.
- At Genghis Grill, diners “build their own bowls” from a selection of fresh meats, spices, vegetables, and sauces in Khan's Kitchen. Guests then hand the creation over to one of the Grill Masters, who cooks it on a large, round grill right before their eyes.
- Since Genghis Grill has a food bar featuring an array of ingredients, a unique sticker system was created so customers can identify ingredients that are part of the Heart Healthy recipe.
- For the many health-conscious Americans who seek foods that are low in fat, calories, or carbohydrates, Genghis Grill also offers 12 deliciously healthy Traditional and Signature recipes to their FANS from their food bar.
