Homemade Soup - YUM!

The number of diners was modest, but the number of grilled sandwiches made was impressive

The TBA Meal Team kicked off the cold month of December with hot, homemade soup and yummy grilled cheese and turkey sandwiches. Add a couple salads and some delicious homemade desserts, and you've got a meal!

It was our first time with this menu, and as always, there was a lesson to be learned. This month's lesson: Don't be shy with the grilled cheese! Make everything you've got.

We've been asked to cover a meal on December 22, so if you're in town and are interested in helping to serve, please let Megan know!

Thanks to those of you who have brought in various items -- like warm socks and hats -- for Teen Feed to give to those who need them.

(We're not a showy bunch, but we sure work well together. We were able to capture a few shots of some of our less camera-shy volunteers here.)

September 2016 Meal Team Gets High Marks

What a crew!  

We had a great group this week, serving a very popular meal of chicken, rice, soy "chicken" tenders (a surprising hit!), bean and corn salad, green salad, watermelon and cookies.

It went without a hitch and we got some great feedback.

  • Actual quote: "This is the best chicken I've ever had in my life." 
  • Another actual quote: "These fake chicken nuggets are even better than chicken."
We would love to see some new faces, so consider joining us next month! Email Megan to get on the list.

This past Thursday we served spinach lasagna made by TBA 3rd graders at Mitzvah Day, plus meatball subs, green beans, salad, watermelon and ice cream bars. Another great meal for nearly 60 homeless youth. Thanks to all our great volunteers. Next up: serving on the Fourth of July!
