Week of July 29th, 2024

Can you believe July is over??? What is happening?! This year is flying by...

Once again, you all showed out for Brunch on Wednesday last week. I'm doing B&G, again, this week. I'll keep experimenting with quantities and taking suggestions until I get it just right!

For one of our lunches, we're having Chicken Tikka Masala, a common Indian dish that you can find at every Indian restaurant in town. If you're not familiar with Indian food, this is a good time to try it. Mine has a very mild (no heat) tomato-yogurt sauce that is warm and wholesome. When you pair that with the fluffy Basmati rice and garlic naan, you'll have a happy tummy - I promise! [My mouth is watering just thinking about it.]

I hope you all had a great start to your week.

See you soon!

I have no words to describe how grateful I was to see you for Brunch this past Wednesday. There was a LINE... I love lines! Thank you, thank you to everyone who showed up to share your love for breakfast. I've decided that Wednesdays will be Brunch-days!

I'm excited to share my Number 1 Menu from my corporate rotation this week: Korean BBQ Beef Bowls! They're everybody's favorite. I hope you take the chance to give it a taste!

See you all soon!

Week of July 15th, 2024

This past week was FUN! I enjoyed chatting with each of you and seeing some new faces come through. Never hesitate to ask Sarah or me a question or to get help with the checkout if you need it. We're never too busy to jump in!

Now...onto this coming week! You better get excited because you've asked and now, I'm gonna deliver on two popular requests: Breakfast and Burgers. Instead of a hot lunch on Wednesday, I'm going to do BRUNCH starting at 9AM. Check out the menu below. And, I'll grill up a heap of burgers for Thursday's Hot Lunch Line. Please use the VOTE buttons below to indicate that you're interested in a particular menu. This will help me guess quantities a bit better.

I've, also, got another flat of peaches on hand so, I might make a second batch of Peach Crisp this week. I hope you enjoyed the one I made this week. Peaches are one of my favorites!

I appreciate all your support! -Ellen, Your Not-So-Average Lunch Lady
