Fun Food Art

Get your kids to try chives, olives, baby tomatoes, carrots and cucumbers with this sleepy lady bug. Don’t you just want to have a lazy day like this little bug?  -But only after a family work-out!
1) Get the kids involved from the start by  having them wash the veggies
2) Young kids can use a plastic knife to cut the olive dots for the lady bug’s back and chives for the bug’s antennae 
3) With a veggie peeler, remove a few thin slices of carrots for legs
4) Cut cucumber in half and create a small log like segment
5) You can use cream cheese or a cheese similar to laughing cow to keep veggies in place.
6) Take a picture of your child eating his or her art!

Please re-print as it contains menu changes due to the extra 2 non-school days.

Change for Sep 6 and 7

Reading the elementary blogs I just found out there will be a Map on site Teacher Training on September 6 and 7.  

Please take note of this and make appropriate changes to the PreOrder forms as there will be NO SCHOOL for grades Nursery to Grade 5 on those days.  

I will be updating the Pre-Order Form with the new info.  Please re-print and remember to send it to the cafeteria with payment attached by Thursday Aug 30.

Yummy!

A few of this weeks selections









Aug 21

Get your kids to try new healthy foods with this first rate sail boat. Add another dimension by teaching them the meaning behind sailing lingo with terms like “pipe down,” “foot loose,” and “to know the ropes.”
Then sail, sail away with this pepper and celery boat!  What better way to enjoy the heat with a juicy orange slice shining sun, apple birds and a blueberry sea. Add in some celery slices for seaweed and carrot fish for character.  Raisin slivers allow the fish to express their happiness while swimming.

Weekend Cooking

Enjoy this wonderful salad over the weekend! 
Summertime and corn on the cob go hand in hand! Corn is a whole grain with many phytochemials to help you fight off cancer and keep your heart and eyes healthy! Corn is one of Super Crew kid Marcus’ favorite foods because of its fight-o-chemicals! However, often times we load corn on the cob with butter and salt, adding lots of unnecessary fat and sodium to our meal.
For a healthy corn on the cob alternative, try:
  • a little olive oil and garlic
  • olive oil and parmesan cheese
  • limejuice and chili powder
The next time you’re making corn on the cob, steer away from the butter and salt and get creative with your corn! But even better yet… cook extra corn on the cob and make this delicious colorful corn salad for a tasty new twist!

Colorful Fresh Corn Salad
Ingredients for salad:
  1. Fresh corn (about 6-9 ears of corn)
  2. 2-3 Large tomatoes, chopped
  3. 15 oz black beans (have the kids help dump beans in strainer and rinse)
  4. 1 small red onion, chopped
  5. 1/3 cup chopped green onions
  6. 3 tablespoons minced fresh basil (have the kids tear of the basil)
  7. 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
  8. 1 avocado, diced into cubes (optional) (have the kids chop the avocado with a plastic knife)
Ingredients for dressing:
  1. ¼ cup white balsamic vinegar (have kids help pour and mix ingredients)
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  4. Salt and pepper (to taste)
Directions:
  1. In a large bowl, combine the salad ingredients.
  2. Whisk together dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
  3. Add dressing to salad ingredients and toss.
  4. Enjoy!
