Remember Food Gifts for Seniors this Holiday Season

In the holidays, food brings us together and makes us thankful for everything we have. Seniors sometimes can’t make it to the family get-together, but we certainly don’t forget them. Sending them a meal that is easy to prepare and delicious is a great way to include them.

Consider meals from MagicKitchen.com. With two menus, you’ll be able to find just the food gift your senior will appreciate. And we have a diabetic friendly menu!

I love this senior lady, I hope when I get to be her age I can dance like that! She has a lot of soul!

Other ideas for food gifts for your favorite Senior:

• Sweet Dreams Dessert Bundle from MagicKitchen.com – desserts and nothing but, grandma will love it!
• Send a pasta package. Pasta is an easy and quick but nutritious meal. Find some gourmet pasta sauce and some good dry pasta. Package it in a pretty pasta bowl with some raffia.
• Treats. Other food gift ideas for the elderly can center on treats they can enjoy but won’t or can’t spend money on. Depending on the senior’s likes and any special dietary restrictions, a gift basket could include Flavored coffees, teas or cocoas,  Regular or sugar-free candies, Dried or candied fruit, Almond or cashew butter, smoked oysters and fancy crackers.
• Ethnic Food. Send them a favorite ethnic food. I know seniors who love bottled Kim-chi, believe it or not! If they are in a smaller town and like to cook, send them ingredients that are hard to get, like cardomom pods,  rice paper wrappers, rice noodles, Thai curry paste, good Parmesan cheese, hard sausages, dried wild mushrooms.
• Shipping. If you get one of the flat rate priority post mail boxes, shipping is cheap!
