The
procedure is quite simple. Taking ordinary ingredients, placing them
into a blender and pushing on has created quite the buzz in the Martin
Health Center on the Western Home Communities
Campus. Not only has the dining services team worked hard to produce
many different varieties of smoothies these past couple of months, but
now more departments are waiting in anticipation for the smoothies to be
brought out to not only residents but staff
who eagerly wait the new flavor palates the team puts together. There
have been a variety of flavors ranging from blueberries, to more fall
like flavors with pumpkin, nutmeg, and apples included. It has been a
great opportunity for education to residents
who may not have had the chance to taste a smoothie before and
understand its nutritional value. These small drinks can pack a
tremendous amount of nutrients and it is a great sight to see residents
coming away with smiles on their faces after tasting these
treats. We are sure in the months to come there will be many more
smoothies to go around for all!
