This week we had a guest speaker from The Garden Kitchen and U of A students. We talked about trying new foods and not saying no before we taste it. We tried blood orange, purple and yellow carrots, and radish all with homemade ranch dressing. I liked them all. The Garden Kitchen offers free classes once a month for:

Nutrition and Healthy Food Choices

This week we learned about the importance of physical and mental health. We looked at the Garden Kitchen and Nutrition.org websites to learn about healthy food choices and how many servings of the food groups you should eat each day. We learned about some healthier options to fast food and how to make some of our favorite non healthy foods healthier. I like hamburgers and french fries. You can make this healthier by using ground beef and ground turkey mixed and cut up potatoes and bake them in the oven. Try to avoid eating a lot of sugary sweets like cake, pie, and cupcakes. Grab a piece of fruit it's sweet too!

We learned about making healthy food choices. We looked at recipes and went to YouTube to watch videos on how to actually make the recipe. You can learn to make anything on YouTube! We talked about ways to make food healthier like using olive or coconut oil, limiting red meat to a few times a week, and cutting fat by using reduced fat milk and cheeses. We compared frying to baking and sautéing. We talked about limiting soda and choosing to eat a piece of fruit instead. Today I brought a healthy organic fig bar for my snack instead of Doritos!
