Meals for Ashley

Hi all,I spoke with Ashley last night and asked her about folks taking meals to them. She thought it would be a good idea to have a couple of meals brought each week. She is currently eating a vegan diet so it would be best for people to use vegan recipes. Meals that are not too spicy would be best as folks receiving chemotherapy often have a very sensitive stomach and spicy foods can be difficult to handle.A meal calendar has been created and the web link is:http://freecal.brownbearsw.com/OsmentTo use the calendar:Click on the actual date then enter your text message. Click create event. Then click on View calendar in the upper left-hand corner to make sure your text has been added. As you decide on a meal to prepare it may be helpful to add a simple dish description to the meal calendar so that the next people signing up can see what has already been taken to Ash and family.Ashley has found a really good vegan cookbook called (“Veganomicon- the Ultimate Vegan Cookbook” by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero)I found a website that has a lot of the "Veganomicon" recipes.The website is:peppertree.wordpress.com/Many recipes can also be found by searching "vegan recipes".If any of you know of other folks who would like to receive this email, please forward it to them.Questions? Please email Tanya Carter-Reichle at trcarter@med.unc.eduor call 919-417-3651.Thanks,Tanya

I'd be glad to make my famous tempeh pasta sauce. Will sign up on the calendar shortly.

Just checked and the calendar was booked up through September! I added my meal on 10/9, but can do any day after 10/8 so let me know if there's a more convenient time.
