Healthy Holidays

Below is a link to an intersting study on school lunches:
http://www.childtrends.org/Files//Child_Trends-2008_11_17_RB_SchoolFoodPolicy.



Christmas cookies, pieces of pie, so many temptations! Not wanting to be a grinch, Cheffie suggests having your favourite traditional treats, and creating balance by making healthy meal choices, especially at lunch. Fresh fruit is available at snack and lunch daily. Choose carrot or celery sticks if you need some "crunch" on your tray. Craving something sweet? 1% chocolate milk can satisfy the sweet tooth, and makes a great dessert with a crisp apple or ripe banana. New low fat, low sodium snacks and menu items will be appearing soon, and please send in suggestions and request and we'll do our best to accommodate.

Speaking of Christmas Cookies..."Hearth to Heart" is our project that will bake
cookies for several area charities, see the Weekly News for details.

Watch this space to keep up with our kitchen capers.

Have a Delicious Day!

Cheffie
