The following bills of fare were used at the Physical Culture Health Home for some time:
Dinner was served at 10 o'clock and supper at 5 o'clock. Usually fruit of some kind was passed around early in the morning.
To those who are compelled to eat at the regular hours of those accustomed to three meals per day, would suggest that they eat some light fruit either at the noon or the morning meal, and the two heavy meals at the other meal hours.
Recipes for cooking or preparing the various dishes in the bills of fare will be found on the pages given in parenthesis to the right of each dish mentioned.
