FIRST THINGS FIRST
1. Understand Food Based Menu
Planning.
2. Determine your MOST immediate
changes to meet new patterns.
• What already meets Final Rule for 2012-13?
• What needs some further work?
Fitting within the minimum/maximum ranges?
More whole grain-rich products?
A wider variety of veggies?
