Veggie Lunch Ideas at CJ's Urban Cafe: Wraps, Salads & Flatbreads That Deliver
If you're vegetarian, or just someone who prefers to skip the meat at lunch a few days a week, you've probably had the experience of looking at a menu and finding one underwhelming option buried at the bottom.
CJ's Urban Cafe in Moorpark is a different story. We've built out a genuine selection of plant-forward options that can stand on their own — not just as alternatives to the "real" menu, but as excellent meals in their own right.
The Plant-Forward Menu at CJ's
Here's a full look at the vegetarian options we offer across every menu category:
Wraps
Veggie Wrap — Our flagship plant-based wrap is loaded with fresh vegetables, greens, and flavor. It's filling, fresh, and exactly what a great veggie wrap should be. No meat substitute required — the vegetables carry it completely.
Herb Turkey Wrap — If eggs and dairy are in your diet, several of our wraps (including veggie-forward options) can be customized for your preferences. Ask our staff about modifications.
Grilled Wraps
Heart Artichoke Wrap — The Heart Artichoke grilled wrap is the standout plant-based option in our grilled wrap menu. The artichoke gives it a savory, meaty depth that makes it genuinely satisfying — even for people who usually go for the chicken options.
Breakfast Wraps
Veggie Breakfast Wrap — Scrambled eggs, fresh vegetables, and a warm tortilla. If you eat eggs, this is the cleanest, freshest breakfast wrap option at CJ's.
Paninis
Eggplant Veggie Panini — This is the one. Eggplant is one of the few vegetables that can anchor a pressed sandwich without feeling like it's missing something. The Eggplant Veggie Panini at CJ's is rich, warm, and completely satisfying.
Flatbreads
Veggie Flatbread Pizza — Fresh vegetables on a crispy flatbread base. Light enough to feel like a smart lunch, satisfying enough to keep you going through the afternoon.
Salads
Most of our salads can be ordered without meat if you prefer. The Apple Nut Tuna Salad, Beet Nut Chicken Salad (ask without chicken), and the Dilled Chicken Salad base work well as full vegetable or egg-based options with simple modifications.
Smoothies — Always Vegetarian
Every single smoothie on our menu — fruit and yogurt — is plant-based and made without any meat products. They're a great way to add protein (yogurt smoothies) or hydration (fruit smoothies) to any vegetarian lunch at CJ's.
How to Order at CJ's If You're Vegetarian
The easiest approach:
1. Start with the Veggie Wrap or Eggplant Veggie Panini as your main
2. Add a Beet Nut Chicken Salad (ask without chicken) or a house salad
3. Finish with any yogurt smoothie for protein and satisfaction
Or mix and match — there's enough on the menu to keep you exploring.
