Real Food
We have worked hard with our menus to provide children with food that
fuels their bodies and their minds with healthy ingredients and
choices. We understand that it takes children several encounters with a
new food before they are willing to give it a shot. With many children
eating a majority of their meals with us, it is important that we are
exposing them to healthful foods and creating healthy habits now. We
work with food experts and our parent board to provide exceptional
nutrition to children in our care. We also provide our recipes to
families so that children can continue their healthy experience outside
our walls!- Limited amounts of sugar and white flower products used in our snacks, meals and homemade recipes
- Fruits and vegetables provided in abundance daily, incorporating them into both meals and snack times. Salads include vegetables of many colors as well as nuts and seeds to provide a variety of nutrition
- Homemade granola, oatmeal and lunch dishes allow us to limit overly processed foods whenever possible, whole wheat and whole grains are used
*Please note that we do not serve school-made lunch at our Milliken school. We carry these ideals into our snack choices and are happy to share ideas with parents on healthy lunches to pack!
