Meal calendar update:

Hi again everyone,
I wanted to update the meal info again. I spoke with Ashley yesterday and she, Al and Sunny appreciate all the meals. Ashley said, "People have brought delicious food that we have all enjoyed immensely".

The three meals a week plan is working well. Two vegan meals and one non-vegan. For the non-vegan meals, I just found out that Sunny doesn't eat beef or pork. Also, would it be possible for folks delivering a meal to also deliver a bag of uncooked cruciferous vegetables to Ashley? Her nutritionist recommends several servings daily of cruciferous vegetables, with a lot of variety. Yesterday during her two hours of receiving intravenous vitamin C, she sat and prepared broccoli and kale for later in the day. If folks take a bag of uncooked vegetables, Ashley would enjoy preparing them.
These are cruciferous vegetables: kale, collard greens, chinese broccoli, cabbage, brussel sprouts, kohlrabi, broccoli, broccoflower, broccoli romanesco, cauliflower, wild broccoli, bok choy, mizuna, Rapini (broccoli rabe), flowering cabbage, chinese cabbage, napa cabbage, turnip root, greens, rutabaga, siberian kale, mustard greens, radish, daikon, horseradish, Real wasabi (not horseradish), arugula, watercress, garden cress, komatsuna. Please e-mail me if you have any questions. trcarter@med.unc.edu

Thanks,
Tanya
