Program Highlight : Our Meals
Our meals program improves our clients' quality of life, health, and ability to perform daily activities. Along with lunch, dinner and a snack, we deliver a message reminding our sick neighbors that they are not alone in their struggle with life-threatening illness.
Recipes
Pasta with Broccoli, Edamame, and Walnuts!
Edamame are whole soybeans. They are high in fiber and have a nutty flavor. Look for them with the frozen vegetables in the supermarket. If you cannot find them, you can use peas or lima beans instead.

Healthy Eating Tips
Did you know? The ingredient that's used the most is listed first on the food label. Read food labels to be sure you're buying what you really want.
Frozen or fresh? Frozen fruits and vegetables are just as nutritious and tend to be cheaper than fresh, especially when buying out of season produce! Be sure to buy frozen fruits and vegetables without added sauces, sugar, and salt.
