chili beans

Chili beans with black, pinto and white beans. A bit of cheese and a few corn tortilla chips go a long way in tempting kids to eat the chili. Our yogurt is organic vanilla and low fat. Fruit options continue to be farm fresh apples and bananas. Today we tried garbanzo beans on the salad bar and were surprised so many students liked them.

farmers market and our new salad bar

Every weekend I have gone to the Murray Farmers market and purchased peaches, apples, pears, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and anything we can use for lunch. I have made some good friends with farmers and hope to continue our arrangement even after the market ends. Different varieties of apples arrive weekly and our students really enjoy the different tastes. I love the colors and smells of all of the different vegetables and fruits. The students have enjoyed all of this bounty at the salad bar, where they get to choose all that goes on their salad.
