Are you tired of trying to cook for yourself or the two of you? Feel like you’re always going out to eat but there aren’t many options?

At 2 p.m. on Tuesday Hy-Vee will be back to the senior center doing another cooking show with great samples of the Simple Fix dinners. There will be samples from the vast choices they have on their weekly menus. Come in for the free samples and see if this might be a good choice for you.

If you are interested in choosing Hy-Vee Simple Fix, all you have to do is choose what you want to have. Take it out of the freezer, thaw, put it in your oven or Crockpot and presto, you have a home cooked dinner for two. Keep it in your freezer until you’re ready to eat at home and pull out one at a time. Choose from a variety of different menus each week.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in contact the senior center at 1-507-481-3332 or Hy-Vee and ask for a Simple Fix order form. See you Tuesday to sample many of the great options.
