About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Looking after everyone
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Count residents who need an alternative
Your team helps residents as needed, while we serve.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
