Have a taste! Our school nutrition department was at PBE Thursday to give students a taste of that day’s hot lunch – it was homemade nachos. Yes, homemade, with fresh New York State beef, cooked and seasoned here in our kitchens from scratch. Whole grain corn chips, real shredded cheddar cheese, brown rice and black beans, also from New York State, round out the entrée. Students also get a side of fresh fruit and milk.
Director of School Nutrition Caitlyn Lazarski and one of PBE’s finest, Leticia, went around the cafeteria giving samples of the nachos to all the students who either brought lunch from home or chose a different option from the cafeteria.
After their taste, students who liked it got a card to bring home in their lunchbox!
A reminder to all parents and guardians, breakfasts and lunches are free to all students in the district. Our school nutrition staff is working hard every day to create delicious and nutritious meals for our students. We hope your students will give them a try and get “Caught Loving Lunch” here at school.
