WHAT'S COOKING

As summer winds down, we welcome Fall. Time to harvest all the beautiful fruits and vegetables from the garden. Every year I have an abundance of zucchini. I do like a good stir fry, but also have a delicious chocolate zucchini cake recipe that is a family favorite. I will need to put baking on my to do list!

Now is also the time to enjoy our flower pots for a few more weeks. I love all the vibrant colors and variety of flowers. Every year I try and plant something new to get some variety in my pots. This year King Tut Grasses were a big hit. It gives the flower pot something with height and is new and unique. I will definitely add these to my list next year. The fall temperatures are perfect for planting your spring blooming bulbs and cool season annuals.

In the fall, our senior lunch program numbers grow. Folks are done traveling, enjoying summer activities and are ready to find an activity or two and get back on a schedule. We have 11 locations to come have lunch in Yellowstone County. Listed below are the locations and days they offer lunch. Remember to call and reserve your lunch one business day before by noon. Come meet some new friends and let us do the cooking.

For the Billings and Laurel Meal Sites we offer either the hot meal of the day or a featured salad. In September our featured salad is a Turkey and Mandarin Orange Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing. Then in October we will feature the Autumn Harvest Chicken Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette Dressing.
