Yesterday was Try It Tuesday in the elementary schools, featuring honey mustard dill Brussels sprouts! The kids really enjoyed them, and parents appreciated them, too:
"Great reviews from my Sunset Hill third grader.. and I can’t ever get her to eat brussel sprouts! She said I can make them at home and she’ll eat them now! Thank you, thank you for this!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽""
It was also the second time the kids were offered real chicken drumsticks. They received great reviews the first time around, and were a hit yesterday, too.
"Kids I've seen have really liked the new lunch items, especially the chicken legs - some kids didn't know how to eat them, so there was some teaching on my end for that item but once they got started, they liked them a lot."
Isn't that amazing feedback? Culinary Express is having a wonderful new impact on our district's kids.
Many kids have said the drumsticks are too small and that they would like two of them. We contacted Culinary Express about this and suggested they bulk up the side dishes on drumstick day. Happily we learned they were already working on this, and were trying to perfect a side dish for the January menu.
If you'd like to try the sprouts for yourself, here is the recipe!
