What's for lunch 4/24/13

FARM FRESH BURGERS
Hamburger or Cheeseburger
with all the trimmings
Homemade coleslaw
Oven baked fries
Fresh Fruit 
Gluten Free without the bun 


After much work, discussion and research, our district has discontinued the use of most USDA commodity beef for a variety of health reasons and contracted with a New York State farm to provide beef raised without antibiotics and hormones. It is more expensive and there is less beef on the menu as a result but it is a huge improvement in the quality of our lunches. So, enjoy your hamburger on a whole grain bun.   The cabbage for the coleslaw is fresh and so is the fruit. 

The fries are McCains.  They are flash or par-fried and then baked. I think they have only 25mg of sodium and 4g of fat. Ingredients are: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (contains one or more of the following oils: Canola, Soybean, Cottonseed, Sunflower, Corn). Contains 2% or less of Annatto (color), Caramel Color, Dextrose, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate Added to Preserve Natural Color.  Skip the fries and load up on sides at the salad bar.
