Pumpkins galore in new ways at WHC

The chefs at the Western Home Communities have been experimenting with a seasonal favorite for residents to enjoy on a weekly basis in October.  Pumpkin being the main ingredient, chefs have designed in particular one dish many residents were shocked and amazed with.  Pumpkin enchiladas (pictured) were a hit amongst many residents at Stanard Family Assisted Living.  It was great to be able to see their faces light up with these delicate dessert off from this Mexican favorite.  


The other was along the more traditional route of pumpkin bundt cake (pictured) which was served to the residents at Willowwood.  Conversations were a flutter at the dinner table among the residents about their favorite pumpkin desserts, and it was such a thrill to be able to hear the chatter in the dining room about the subject, with chefs getting new ideas to try and some to manipulate into something even more delicious.
