Resources for FoodPrints Families

Students bring home their enthusiasm for fresh produce and tasty ways to prepare them in FoodPrints recipes. Including kids in the cooking process is one of the best ways to encourage them to eat fruits and veggies and to try new foods. Cooking together at home is a great way to build skills and habits for a lifetime of healthy eating — and it’s a wonderful time to bond as a family.
