Following is a list of meals to be served this month in the Mid-county area by Meals on Wheels. Meals are served from 11:30 a.m. until 1 p.m. Monday through Friday at the Cherry Blossom Senior Services Office in the East Portland Community Center, 740 S.E. 106th Ave. Anyone over the age of 60, regardless of income, is invited to dine. The organization’s cost for each meal is $7.39, and diners are asked to contribute what they can comfortably afford.
The lunch meal supplies one-third to one-half of an older adult’s daily nutrition requirements. Each menu includes a salad, an entree, a starch, a vegetable, bread, dessert, and a beverage. The DASH Diet is also available for those who need diabetic, low-sodium or low-cholesterol meals.
Transportation assistance to the senior meal center sites is available through Ride Connection (rideconnection.org) or TriMet LIFT Service (trimet.org/lift/index.htm).
