Diva's Dish Recipes

A very special thank you to Food & Nutrition Services staff members, Monica Klemm, Kristi Veltkamp, and Jane Legoretta, for representing Kish Hospital at Diva’s Dish on April 21, a fundraiser for DeKalb’s Glidden Homestead and Visitors Center. The Kish divas served three delicious flavors of homemade hummus—mild, spicy, and more spicy.
