Hot Lunch: To be Announced

HOT LUNCH DAY: Meal to be announced.

Hot lunches are prepared with supervision and care, and are intended to teach participants how to follow instructions and work with simple recipes for a healthy meal option.

Hand over hand technique is used to guide use of common everyday kitchen tools safely, from washing, to cutting and peeling ingredients as needed. Cooking processes and kitchen hygiene are reinforced in every hot lunch session.

The result is a nutritious lunch that teaches independence and is delicious to eat.

Allergies and food restrictions are always accommodated on an individual basis.

Menu can vary, depending on number of participants, season, availability and weekly/daily themes.
