FCS Nutrition

Our awesome FMS cafe crew sporting our new "Nacho Average Lunch Crew" tshirts, on Taco (salad) Tuesday😂 These ladies are definitely "nacho average crew", they get the job done, FMS style!!

Up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane......... no, it's your everyday superhero lunchlady!! Today is School Lunch Hero Day and everywhere all across the nation schools and districts are celebrating their hard working cafeteria crews. We cannot say enough good things about these ladies, they have truly been the backbone to the nutrition department this year! Make sure you reach out to your cafeterias and let them know how much they are appreciated.
A quote from a Tshirt: Lunch Lady - Someone who does precise guesswork based on unreliable data provided by those of questionable knowledge. *See also wizard, magician*

Everyone knows it's strawberry season!! FCS Nutrition once again brought in some local foods. These fresh strawberries came straight from Dennison's Farm. Adding some whipped topping to them just made the best fruit cup ever!!

It's almost here, our favorite day of the year.

❗️❗️ Please note, due to early dismissal and our priority being students and staff safety, lunch menu may differ from original menu based on time for cooking and serving. Each school serves at different times and at different student capacity, therefore today FCS Nutrition will do what is needed to make sure each Tiger is able to get lunch as quickly as possible.

FMS staff is absolutely correct!! "Ear-resistible" school lunch meals 😂
We better....HOP to it😏

Nothing like a giant warm roll to go with your Tyson chicken drumstick. When we say these rolls were huge...they were huge!! Yes,we realize we should have taken a picture of the whole food tray,but that's what happens when you're distracted by having a state audit.

Today each student was able to get a mini Cat and the Hat treat as they received their lunch tray of Green Eggs and Ham.
What a spectacular way to end Read Across America week in honor of Dr Seuss.

I do like green eggs and ham.... I do like them Sam I am.

One fish, two fish, red fish...... Jello fish!! Tomorrow Ralph Askins students that get a lunch tray will also be getting a special treat!!

A few things from this week......
☑️Thanks to our local vendor 5+2 Sourdough for the delivery of homemade bread for our lunch menu yesterday. It was a hit once again.
☑️A sneak peak into upcoming Tiger Munchables for FMS students on field trips next week with fresh fruits and veggies to go along with their other bagged items.
☑️Our crazy Askins crew showing off some new cafe gear! Psst, look for some upcoming Dr Seuss treats next week for our small Tigers!

Look who's back, it's our Garden Friends! The fruit and veggie buddies are checking in with perfect timing. This week they will get to enjoy local Farm 2 School sourdough bread on Thursday with the hot ham and cheese on the menu. Next week, they will be busy spending time reading with Dr. Seuss celebration. Green Eggs and Ham will be on the menu that Friday. What a great time to be a Tiger!!

Congratulations to our cafeteria staff for winning $100 from Utrust, thanks to a note of appreciation written by FHS students. They are presented their check from Brenda Wilkes and Faye Hill, UTrust coordinators.

Congratulations to our outstanding cafeteria staff who won a $100 prize from Utrust thanks to a letter of appreciation from two of our students. We thank our cafeteria staff for taking care of our students, faculty and staff. The Utrust Appreciation Program, which recognizes an employee group each month, allows our Tigers to see their school as a place filled with people who are doing everything they can to help make students’ lives better each and every day.

Local ground beef for our Tigers today in the rotini. Taylor Made Market never disappoints!

The sourdough went over great today!! Students and staff really enjoyed all the hard work the fcs cafe ladies put into this. Thank you so much to our local farmer for this opportunity!!!

Look what we have here....... Fresh homemade sourdough bread. This is on the menu for tomorrow as a hot ham and grilled cheese sandwich.
