Today, we’re spreading holiday cheer a little early at Nourish Meals on Wheels by celebrating Christmas in July! This festive occasion is made even more special as we honor July as Culinary Arts Month, recognizing the creativity and dedication of chefs everywhere, including our very own Chef Geoff and his team.
A Feast to Remember
Chef Geoff has outdone himself with a delightful holiday-inspired menu
that caters to all of our clients’ tastes and dietary needs. Today’s meal includes:
Roast Leg of Lamb with Gravy: This tender, flavorful dish is paired with a rich gravy that perfectly complements the savory lamb.
Potato and Cauliflower Gratin: A creamy, cheesy blend of potatoes and cauliflower that offers comfort in every bite.
Corn and Green Beans: Fresh, vibrant vegetables that add color and a burst of summer flavor to the plate.
Snickerdoodle Cookie: A freshly baked, classic cookie that adds the perfect sweet finish to the meal.
Culinary Arts and Dietary Accommodations
In celebration of Culinary Arts Month, we are privileged to highlight the
skill and versatility of Chef Geoff and his team. They go above and beyond to accommodate various dietary restrictions and preferences, ensuring every client receives a meal that is both nutritious and enjoyable. Whether it’s crafting a flavorful vegetarian option or adjusting recipes for specific dietary needs, their commitment to excellence shines through in every dish they create.
For our vegetarian clients, today, they prepared a hearty Veggie Loaf with Gravy, and for those who prefer poultry, an alternate entrée Roast Turkey with Gravy never disappoints. We also served alternative desserts, vegetables and a wild rice dish to accommodate additional dietary needs.
The Importance of Connection
Beyond the delicious meals, daily visits from our volunteers are a vital part of what makes Nourish Meals on Wheels special. For many of our clients, these visits provide essential social interaction, a friendly face, and a moment of connection that brightens their day. Especially during festive occasions like Christmas in July, these interactions foster a sense of community and belonging that is just as nourishing as the food itself.

We invite you to be part of our mission to bring joy, nutrition, and connection to those in need. Your support can make a significant difference. Whether through volunteering your time to deliver meals and share a smile, or through donations that help fund these special celebrations, your contribution is invaluable.
From all of us at Nourish Meals on Wheels, we wish you a delightful and festive day filled with good food and good company.
Happy Christmas in July!
