June Fun Days(Highlighted on Menu)June 9: Naonal Chocolate Ice Cream Day!Did you know?!? The average American eats20 quarts of ice cream a year or 5 gallons. Wemay be celebrang chocolate but vanilla isactually the most popular avor making up

almost 30% of all sales.

Geng ready for summer? June is the month that themost ice cream is produced!

Looking for a healthy sasfying alternave? Frozenyogurt has half the fat and less calories!

June 16: Dolphin Surprise!Get in the summer spirit with a dolphinbanana holding a grape on June 16th.

June 4: Cheese Lovers Day!Add cheese to anything and it becomes a popular choicewith our customers. Ever wonder how its made?1. Milk is heated up and a bacteria is added to thicken it.

2. A substance called rennet is added (this is what animals use to

digest milk) which causes it to turn into bits called curds

oang in liquid called whey.

3. The curds are drained o the whey and

chopped up. Salt is added and they are pressed

into blocks.

4. Cheese is stored for months unl ripe.

Some cheeses use rennet alternaves or can be eaten fresh!

Cheese is a great source of calcium and protein however can

be higher in saturated fat. Enjoy in moderaon!

Love the Crunch?Each day we oer a dierent vegetable fresh fromthe Veggie Patch served daily w/ranch & hummus!

Did you know?!?Vegetables lose some nutrients when cooked.

Another reason to love the crunch!Our Veggie Lineup:

Monday: Baby Carrots

Tuesday: Cucumbers

Wednesday: Potato Salad

Thursday: Broccoli Bites

Friday: MixedPatchw/Hummus/Dip

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!

Bloomin Onion BurgerWe added a little bit of western style to the traditional cheeseburger. We add

an onion ring for a little bit of extra flavor and crunch.Asian Stir Fry Over Rice

Vegetables and chicken taste amazing when tossed in a sweet and sour

Asian Sauce and served over rice. We make it authentic by adding in a mini

egg roll and a fortune cookie.

Buffalo Chicken Salad

Hot sauce is a hit across all age groups. Chicken tossed in buffalo sauceover greens is the perfect way to get students to eat their veggies! We love itwith blue cheese or light ranch dressing.

Turkey Club Salad

The turkey club sandwich has always been a hit so we made it into a saladto sneak in a serving of leafy greens. Any dressing tastes great!

Taco TwinsGround beef is a great source of iron for our growing customers. TacoTwins are easy-to-eat and are very eye appealing. Nachos and tacos arealways a huge hit with our customers.

Boneless Buffalo Wings

Anything buffalo seems to be the trendy new food choice even with ouryounger customers. Boneless buffalo wings are soft, breaded chickentenders tossed in light hot sauce. Dont forget milk! The best way to

counteract a bit of spiciness is white milk plus we know our customers aregetting their calcium.
