Lindley
Food Service takes great pride in providing
nutritious meals to many Head Start Programs and
day cares throughout the New England region. We
follow USDA and CACFP guidelines to meet or
exceed the individual nutrient needs.
We employ a full time Nutrition Compliance
Director who oversees the menu writing and meal
production.
Our commissaries are strategically located to
serve these programs with fresh meals prepared
daily.
In some of our facilities, the counts are sent
over the same morning of delivery.
All meals served Family Style.
Our
menus include the following:
Seasonal food changes
Cultural differences are taken into account
New food items introduced
Meals that include foods with different
textures, shapes and colors
Whole grain breads, cereal, and grain products
frequently
Items representing food sources of Vitamins A
and C and iron
Modification as necessary with a Doctors note
to meet childrens special dietary needs (food
allergies and
intolerances)
Lindley understands "family style" service for
the Head Start/Child Nutrition/Day Care
Programs. Our menus are specifically designed
to meet the special needs of the children in
each particular age group. We strive to
introduce home style variety of meals to help
the child form good eating habits. Cookie-cutter
school menu's DO NOT meet these needs. See a
typical menu for Head Start programs
here. |
