Spring Break Delivery # 3

The last step in a very successful mission to keep the Campus Kitchen open during spring break was the final delivery of meals.

Sophomores Marty Ellsworth, James Scheib, and Roger Lalle returning from a delivery route.

Volunteers, such as Marty, James, and Robert, were instrumental in keeping the Campus Kitchen going during spring break. During the 10-day break, 14 volunteers logged just over 60 hours total while preparing 149 meals and delivering them to people in the area!

Spring Break Meals # 3

The Cooking Club came in again and volunteered for the last cooking shift over spring break. The collaboration resulted in yet another fabulous meal!

The contents were sliced ham for the protein, macaroni and cheese for the starch, spinach as the veggie, and pound cake for the dessert. This combination of food has a good variation of color and texture, so I'm positive the clients appreciated the work that went into preparing them.

One new thing we tried during this shift was wrapping the dessert, the pound cake in this case, in small bags. Some times the various food items will shift in the meal container and spill on the dessert. We tried our best to keep that from happening by wrapping the dessert separately.
