Week 45 | 5 Nov | Wednesday diners at the Gymzaal

Spaghetti squash is perfect for Halloween weekend. How about stuffed spaghetti squash from the oven: cut it in half, remove the seeds, rub it with oil and some salt and pepper. Place it cut-side down on a baking tray for about half an hour. In the meantime, make a delicious filling with, for example, couscous with oyster mushrooms, some celery and perhaps some carrots from last week’s package? Pop it under the grill with some cheese and it’s ready!

Wednesday dinners are back at the Gymzaal for the next 3 weeks. Want to sign up? Read more in the newsitems below! 💚

News items

  • Weekly diner on Wednesdays at the Gymzaal: We are very happy to bring back eating together! The dinners will take place in De Gymzaal on 05/11, 12/11 and 19/11. After this we will decide to continue. Food will be vegan and nut-free and on a pay-what-you-can basis. Please find more information and register until Sunday at 12.00 via this form.
  • Eggs will change suppliers: From mid-October, we will no longer receive eggs from Hoeve Biesland, but from Zwaanheuvelhoeve in Brabant. The eggs will also become more expensive, from 40 cents to 45 cents per egg. In the blog, we explain why this is happening. 
  • Experiment ‘solidarity’: Lekkernassûh is working on a fair and sustainable food chain. This includes making our healthy vegetables affordable for everyone in The Hague. That is why we start a new experiment ‘solidarity’ at location The Gymzaal on October 15. How does it work? Would you like to read more about the project and how you can contribute? Read our blog.
  • Do you have a surplus of Timebank hours? Please spend them at the market or package-free shop, or (if you don’t manage to spend them all), please donate them to Lekkernassuh! Or to the solidarity project! Ater the summer, we have a big shortage of hours, because there are more going out than coming back in.
