Title: Main entrees
Description: Abstract: Quantity main entree recipes that use USDA food commodities and that are suggested for use in the Title VII Nutrition Program for the elderly are included. When using USDA food commodities effectively, menus under the Title VII program can be enhanced, especially when foods with the increased sensory appeal that the elderly prefer are served. The experience of the Sotheast Missouri Area Agency on Aging with these recipes shows that they increase menu variety and food consumption and nutrient intake and also reduce costs. The main entrees covered are poultry, beef, ham and pork, frankfurters, cheese and eggs, and fish with most recipes serving between 50 and 100 people. Individual recipes include Chicken Tetrazzini, Okra-Beef Dinners, Wild Rice and Ham, Cheese Souffle, and Cod Au Gratin.
