Spring Hills Signature Dining Beef Kebabs Recipe

As part of Spring Hills Senior Communities fresh approach to senior living, farm-to-table meals are key to nourishing the bodies of senior residents.  Unlike most assisted livings, Spring Hills grows and harvests their own, fresh ingredients, such as tomatoes and peppers to incorporate in nutritious and delicious recipes.  This kind of horticulture therapy helps to decrease stress, keep minds focused, and adds value to seniors to be part of something that benefits the community around them.  This simple yet satisfying meal can be made at home, by Spring Hills Home Care Services caregivers, or at one Spring Hills Assisted Living or Poet’s Walk Memory Care Communities.
