Nutritional Analysis (per serving)
Calories: 155, Fat: 6 grams
Eat a Rainbow!
Eat a fruit or veggie high in Vitamin C daily – such as an
orange, grapefruit, cabbage, broccoli or pepper.
Foods of different colors offer a variety of nutritional
benefits. The more colors on your plate – the more
nutritional balanced your meal!
Season winter squash with orange juice, allspice, nuts or raisins. Squash
is loaded with Vitamin A.
Eat a dark green or orange veggie every other day – such as spinach,
kale, mustard greens, squash or sweet potatoes.
•As the colder weather approaches, and
children tend to spend more times indoors,
now is a great time to get them involved in
cooking!
•Getting kids interested in food preparation
can help improve the foods they eat and
make them more likely to experiment with
new foods, especially fruits and vegetables.
Young children will need supervision with
knives and using the stove, but teenagers
can easily prepare meals or snacks.
•The easier the items are to prepare, the
more likely kids will try the foods again. Start
out with simple pasta and vegetable dishes or
let them bake breads and muffins that are
chock-full of fruits or vegetables. Smoothies
are another easy option.
•Break the cold weather blues by
encouraging your children to learn about
cooking and healthy eating in the kitchen.
Encourage them to accompany you to the
grocery store and to pick out a new fruit and a
new vegetable for the entire family to try. It
may require a cookbook to find the best way
to prepare the new vegetable, but a food
adventure is often a good adventure?
