This is the home-delivered menu for October 2026. It is not the congregate dining menu served at the Aging Up center. Home-delivered meals are brought to your home. Congregate dining is lunch at the center.
Each meal meets 1/3 of the Dietary Reference Intakes for older adults and follows the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Each day lists a Choice A entrée and a Choice B entrée. The sides are the same for both choices unless a side says it is for one choice only.
