Program Guidelines
Enjoy a healthy dinner with correct portion sizes each evening during August
Eat any variety of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean meat, or low-fat dairy products
Reasons to enjoy healthy dinners at home:
- Children can learn new skills, build good values, and establish family traditions.
- Children generally do better in school and have few behavior problems.
- Children and adults get the nutrients they need.
- Families save time, money and hassle.
- Everyone treasures mealtime memories.
Plan a weekly menu: Make it simple or make it detailed. The key is to have a plan for shopping and cooking. Involve the whole family.
Cook once, eat twice: Cut preparation time by cooking and freezing large batches of key ingredients, such as ground beef for tacos and spaghetti sauce.
Keep the cupboard stocked: Pack the pantry and freezer with staples like canned beans, tuna, fruit, pasta, rice, baking mixes, and frozen vegetables.
Use the sandwich advantage: Nothing is quicker than a healthy sandwich, pita pocket, or tortilla wrap.
Employees that follow the program guidelines for at least 25 days will receive Healthy Wyoming Credit be entered into a drawing for one of one hundred $50 gift cards to improve health and well-being.
