Menus

Lunch: escarole soup, split pea soup (v), chicken pot pie, buttered egg noodles, seitan ragout (v), tofu with black bean sauce (vgt), corn, asparagus stir fry (vgt), greek bar, cupcakes

Dinner: old fashioned meatloaf, garlic smashed potatoes, bbq seitan (v), curried quinoa (vgt), vegetable blend, asian veggie stir fry (vgt), boule bar, key lime pie
