Avocado Month at The Moorings
We celebrated "avocado month" at The Moorings with the Assisted Living residents by incorporating avocados into the weekly menus with items such as: Chips & Guacamole, Black Bean Avocado Burgers, Avcocado & Grapefruit Salad, and Avocado Deviled Eggs. Residents were also educated on the nutritional content and benefits of avocados which made them more willing to try the various menu items. The residents were excited to learn about and try something new. Many residents were hesitant at first to try the "green eggs" but were pleasantly surprised when they did.
