March is National Nutrition Month
What a great time to eat a rainbow! Not only is there enough sunshine-rain-snow-sunshine-rain in the Oregon early Spring weather forecast, it's National Nutrition Month. We are encouraged to "eat a rainbow." What's that, you say? A rainbow? Well, look for foods--fruits and vegetables in particular--in every color of the rainbow. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
How many colors can you get into one meal?
Let's have a contest. The best rainbow menu will win a most delicious prize.
Rules:
1. Must include all necessary food groups--grains, veggie, fruit, protein.
2. Must include as many colors as possible.
3. Must be a kid-friendly meal. (this is the most challenging, I think!)
Now here's a little hint. There aren't many followers to this blog, so your chances are pretty darn good of winning the above-mentioned most delicious prize. Of course, I might have to tell all my friends about this just to make it less of a cake walk. (great idiom for Mr. J's class)
Not sure how to post your fabulous menu to the blog? Just turn it in to the office and we will collect them and announce a winner before Spring Break. One entry per person. Good luck and good eating!!
