Balloons for a

Balanced Lunch

Our nutrition education involves the healthy marketing of our serving line.

To teach the concept of balance to our elementary-aged customers we use the concept of Balloons for a Balanced Lunch. Each balloon represents a different food group.

Blue is milk, Red is fruits, Green is vegetables, Yellow is grain, Purple is protein.

A lunch tray with every color balloon is a healthy one!

Nutrition Tip of the Month Mindful eating while watching TV!

When you are pre-occupied you

are less likely to notice your body

sending signals of fullness. If you

want to enjoy a snack during your

favorite TV show pre-portion

instead of eating it straight from the bag!

Why It’s Good For You... Grapes contain antioxidants which have

been shown to decrease the risk of certain diseases. They are packed with vitamin C

& K and fiber!

Pumpkin

Why It’s Good For You... Pumpkin is packed with potassium & Vitamin A. Ever hear someone say eat carrots they

are good for your eyes? It’s the Vitamin A and pumpkin has it too!

Fruit & Vegetable of the Month

Grapes Did you know? Grapes are the second most

popular fruit in the world only second

to oranges.

Nutrition Intuition In 1987, Registered Dietitian Karen Fynan built a company based on the principles of Nutrition & Service naming her company Nutri-Serve Food Management to reflect these beliefs. Nutrition has always been at the forefront of menu planning with the goal of creating a serving line that teaches our customers about healthy meals. We believe our exponential growth to 83 districts over the last 25+ years is a result of our commitment to serve tasty and healthy meals to our customers. Nutri-Serve’s Corporate Dietitian, Kristen Mueller, RD, works collaboratively with our leadership team to plan our monthly menus and provides nutrition support and education to students, athletes & school staff.

N ational School Lunch Week

was created in 1962 by President

John F. Kennedy in recognition of the

ongoing efforts of food service

professionals to provide healthy lunches to

students across the nation. The National

School Lunch Program is the largest of the federal child nutrition programs with

95% of elementary and secondary schools participating. This year’s theme is about

appreciating the diversity of food our country has to offer. This month’s menu has

incorporated the School Nutrition Association’s theme of recognizing the different

regions of America and serving something unique to each region.

School Lunch Across the USA

Each day approximately 32 million healthy lunches are served in

99,000 schools across America!

Grown-up Grilled Cheese

We take the traditional grilled cheese to a whole new level! With American, mozzarella & cheddar cheeses all melted on whole grain white bread with a slice of turkey bacon— you will be loving grilled cheese for years to come!

* Southwest Turkey Salad Rachael Ray sure does know how to get kids to eat salad! Diced roasted turkey seasoned with pepper, dried cilantro & Cajun spice on top of tomatoes, cucumbers, cheddar cheese, crunchy noodles, turkey bacon. We recommend light ranch dressing! All salads on this menu are made from a mixture of spinach and other greens!

Apple, Cranberry & Mozzarella Salad

It’s the ultimate Fall salad and a great choice for our vegetarians! It’s a super sweet salad with crunchy apples, chewy dried cranberries and mild flavored mozzarella cheese. We love it with raspberry vinaigrette.

Chicken Salad Sliders w/Grapes

It’s a unique twist on traditional chicken salad….we add chopped grapes for a touch of sweetness! This delicious chicken salad is served on mini two-bite sliders. An easy to eat finger food for our young customers!

Antipasto Salad

Ham and cheese rolls, Salami triangles and pepperoni circles served over a garden salad. It’s like your favorite Italian sandwich over a bed of veggies and mixed greens. We love Italian dressing with it!

Ham & Cheese Pinwheels The ultimate finger food! It’s similar to a wrap sliced up into narrow two bite pieces minus the lettuce, tomato & condiments which can be a deterrent for our young picky eaters. Our veggie lovers load up on fresh veggie sides with their pinwheels.

* Cheesy Mac and Trees A creative Rachael Ray idea to sneak in some extra veggies for our young customers. We add broccoli in with our traditional whole grain mac and cheese. All the kids notice is its cheesy delicious-ness!

* BBQ Turkey Sloppy Joe

Rachael Ray puts a healthy twist on the traditional sloppy joe choosing turkey which is lower in fat than beef. With some peppers, onions, BBQ sauce and hot sauce served on a wheat bun it will surpass all expectations.

Sides: Chocolate Hummus– Ground chic peas with a touch of chocolate powder and sugar. We love it with graham crackers!

Easy Cheesy Broccoli Bake– broccoli baked in olive oil and topped with cheese

Cauliflower Popcorn– cauliflower baked in olive oil and topped with cheese

Pumpkin Twister– vanilla yogurt, pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice

Mello Jello– Melon in gelatin
