What you provide
- A balanced dinner for your chosen site: protein, starch or grain, and vegetables or salad
- Optional dessert or fruit
- An ingredient list for allergy tracking
How many to cook for
- Balay Ko on Barca - about 30 residents
- Longbranch Cabins - about 22 residents
- Both sites - about 52 residents total
Food safety basics
- Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold during transport
- Use disposable, lidded trays when possible and label items with dish name, date, and ingredients
- No home-canned items
