White meat breaded chicken tenders
Penne alla vodka
Caesar Salad
Apple Cherry crisp
These are fried, frozen Tyson "quality" chicken chunks. Here are the ingredients for the chicken nuggets (they may vary a little from the chicken tenders) so you can decide for yourself: Chicken, water, salt, and natural flavor. BREADED WITH: Wheat flour, water, wheat starch, white whole wheat flour, salt, yellow corn flour, corn starch, dried onion, dried garlic, dried yeast, brown sugar, extractives of paprika, and spices. Breading set in vegetable oil. There have been discussions during the district wide nutrition committee about getting real chicken on the menu. In my opinion we should not buy anything from Tyson. If you watch the film Food Inc. you will understand why.
The pasts is barilla. The sauce is a Red Pack vitamin enhanced tomato sauce. The sodium at 140mg is much lower than we previously used. Here are the ingredients: Tomato Concentrate (Water, Tomato Paste), Sugar, Soybean Oil, Potassium Chloride, Onion Powder, Salt, Citric Acid, Spice, Garlic Powder, Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Black Pepper, Vitamin E (DL-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate), Natural Flavor, Vitamin A (Retinol Palmitate). Not clear on how they are making it "alla vodka".
lThe caesar salad is pretty clear - romaine is a traditional choice for caesar but also more nutritious than iceberg. The Caesar salad dressing is organic by Chelten. Here are the ingredients: filtered water, organic soybean oil, organic white vinegar, organic Parmesan cheese (pasteurized organic cow's milk, salt, cheese cultures, microbial enzymes, organic potato starch), pasteurized organic frozen whole egg yolks, salt, organic sugar, organic ground mustard seed, organic garlic powder organic onion powder, organic black pepper, xanthan gum. (in 2 tbsp - 8 g fat, 160 mg sodium).
The apple cherry crisp is a dessert.
