Our Residents' Recipes

On Earth Day we enjoyed a new recipe provided by resident Josephine! She asked our chef, Ivory, to make her favorite Pepper Steaks. Chef was excited about the opportunity to create one of Josephine’s favorites and it ended up being a cherished recipe by associates and residents alike! We’ll be adding this to our menu from time to time and we’re looking forward to more recipes coming from our residents!
