Because volunteers will be sorting food donations on November 22, 2009, there won't be any congregational lunch.  Cafe Service will be available all day, selling pastries, beverages, sandwiches, and snacks for all, including all attendees to both worship services.  Volunteers will be able to fill up with chili, cornbread, and salad prepared be Margaret Albamonte and the RE Middle School Classes and sponsored by the Lunch Program.

Spaghetti with marinara sauce.  Topped with olives, kale, or cheese.

Caponata, adapted from Sundays at Moosewood: Extra garlic... Elizabeth Ide did the cooking here - Thanks Elizabeth, very yummy!

Jay and Elizabeth, you were star volunteers - your help above and beyond was truly appreciated!

  • A mix between a west African vegetable stew and a groundnut stew along with some twists (substituted half the cabbage with cauliflower, for example). Peanut sauce was optional and made by mixing "natural" peanut butter with water. This is a really easy recipe that can be hardy for winter (thick) or refreshing for summer (thin)
  • Okra with tomatoes (spicy!)
  • Millet (just millet, water, and salt)
  • French lentil salad
