The fruit is still fabulous and we are using the cherry pitter to get cherries both for snack and for cooking.

Whole Grains are such an important source of nutrients and fiber for children. At school, we are finding more and more ways that kids love to include them in our menu. Whole wheat flatbread, bagels, thin sandwich rolls, tortillas, crackers, and oatmeal are delicious and lend themselves to a variety of toppings. This week they are paired with hummus, cheeses, and fruit toppings.
