Here's what they can probably expect from the salad: The bar will have two kinds of cheese, chic peas, romaine lettuce, and raw vegetables among other things - including croutons. At Sea Cliff at least, the salad is put together by the cafeteria workers to order for the kids. The dressings are Balsamic Vinegar, Ranch and Caesar.

This week's soup: Tomato and Rice
Plus, the alternate entree for January is a 1/2 wrap with the soup and sides. The wrap changes each day. Thursday are Roast Beef. Wraps have romaine lettuce, white flour tortilla and Boar's Head meats. (See below in case they are using the Friday schedule for the wraps.)
We are canceling the original Friday menu because the snow made the fresh food harder to get. It was:
BBQ Roast Chicken
Herb Baked Potato Wedges
Cucumber Rounds
Watermelon!
This is frozen chicken to which we add BBQ sauce. The potato wedges are plain, frozen potatoes quarters - a USDA commodity food. We season and bake them. Cucumber rounds and watermelon sounds like great, fresh options.
