Today is National Employee Appreciation Day! How can you help us celebrate our team?

❤ Thank a dining employee when you visit one of our dining locations
❤ Nominate them through our employee recognition program THX
❤ Leave a nice message on the banner at the dining hall

A simple “thank you” can go a long way in making someone’s day. Let’s show our dining team how much we appreciate all they do! 👏

There's nothing cheesy about what's happening at The Dining Center today...well, maybe there is, since Dietitian Krista is here with a table of yummy ingredients to dip into a cheese fondue. Did you know, there are many health benefits to eating cheese? Stop by and find out more, now through 1:30pm.

This Thursday, our very own Chef Rhonda will be competing on team "Peas in a Pod" in hopes of creating and executing a winning, plant-forward dish. If you recall, she was on the winning team in last year's competition...can she do it again?? Wish her luck when you see her in The DIning Center!!

Plant-Forward, Flavor-First! Plant-forward eating puts vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes at the center of the plate, while still allowing small, occasional amounts of animal products. It’s not about giving something up, but about discovering something new: previously unexplored menu ideas and creative possibilities.
📅 Save the Date: February 5! 11 AM - 1 PM
Our 2nd Annual Battle of the Chefs, happening at Central Maine Community College, brings together some of Maine’s Sodexo chefs as they compete with innovative plant-forward menus that prove discovery, sustainability, and great taste belong on the same plate.
