¿Necesita una nueva receta para su Programa de Alimentos para el Cuidado de Niños y Adultos? 

Update your breakfast menus with these easy-to-prepare USDA standardized breakfast recipes.

Each year we ask child nutrition professionals to inspire other foodservice professionals and submit a picture of your most creative meal utilizing USDA Foods.  With more than 200 USDA Foods items available, we want to highlight each food group and the innovative ways in which they can be used.

Under challenging circumstances during the COVID-19 pandemic, school communities have worked tirelessly to ensure children have access to meals.

The new USDA Recipes for Schools should be available for distribution beginning June 1, 2006.  States may order copies for all their School Districts and schools or they may forward the attached electronic order form to their School Districts so the Districts may order for their staff and their schools.  Copies will not be mailed to individual schools.  

The recipes from the 1988 Quantity Recipes for School Food Service and the 1995 Tool Kit for Healthy School Meals were revised using updated yields from the Food Buying Guide for Child Nutrition Programs and using the 2005 Food Code for the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points.
