The North Grove Meal Kits: Lasagna Soup

Every Thursday, a dedicated team of volunteers work together to lovingly pack take-home Meal Kits! Each kit contains a vegetarian (or vegan) recipe, and all the ingredients needed to make a nutritious and delicious meal at home.  

Once packed, the kits are sold at an affordable, subsidized price at our weekly Good Food Market. They provide 60 servings to community members every week. That’s more than 2,800 servings a year! 

Meal Kits are just one of the ways that volunteers help make good food accessible to The North Grove community. Whether you have had a chance to try our Meal Kits or not, we encourage you to give this tasty Lasagna Soup a try. It’s one of our favourites!
