New season… exciting, new menu!

08 Jul New season… exciting, new menu!

We’re excited to launch our new Summer / Fall menu!

You’ve probably noticed something new and exciting being delivered this week.  It’s our new 2011 Summer / Fall Ready-to-Eat Hot Meal Program!  It officially started on July 4th.

Butternut Squash Soup, Lemon Glazed Chicken, Steamed Broccoli, Tangerine Mousse…. and so many more delicious choices!

Each hot meal consists of soup, a main meal (which includes a protein, starch and vegetables) and a dessert. Meals are portion controlled and are delivered in recyclable and disposable containers. Our Summer / Fall 2011 Menu follows a 4 week rotation (as opposed to the 3 week Winter Menu) and offers a nutritional, balanced meal developed with input from a Registered Dietitian.  This way, you should get a different meal everyday of the month.  Meals are diabetic-friendly with no added salt or added fats. Individual preferences can be accommodated, within reason.

• Cost is $5.25 per meal including soup, entrée and dessert
• Delivered by friendly Volunteers Monday through Friday between 11:30am and 1pm
• Hot Program service can be requested for each weekday or for as little as two days a week
• Orders must be placed 24 hours in advance
• Kindly give 24 hours notice if you wish to cancel your order
• Volunteers provide a short visit and a daily safety check
