What's for lunch 10/4/12



Breakfast Burrito Scrambled Eggs with Peppers, Onions & Jack Cheese
Herb Roasted Potato
Fresh Fruit 



The burrito is made with a flour tortilla, eggs, onions, peppers and jack cheese. None of these items are organic but the veggies and and eggs are fresh. The tortillas are from Tyson and contain:  Bleached Enriched Wheat Flour (Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Water, Soybean Oil, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Contains one or more of the following: Cottonseed Oil, Soybean Oil), Mono- and Diglycerides, Contains 2% or less of the following: Salt, Baking Powder (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Corn Starch, Monocalcium Phosphate), Fumaric Acid, Sodium Bicarbonate, Dough Conditioner (Wheat Flour, Calcium Sulfate, Sorbic Acid), Preservative (Sodium Propionate and Potassium Sorbate).  Sodium is 380mg. 5g of fat (1 of which is saturated). 


The potatoes are local. They are seasoned and baked. The fruit is fresh not canned. The usual alternatives are available including the salad bar.  

Make sure your child is taking all the sides that are available.  It is so important that they have enough fuel in their bodies to get through their very busy days.   You can never eat too many fruits and vegetables.
