Operation Food Search

Celebrate National Nutrition Month®!

NNM2015_FB At Operation Food Search, we talk about nutrition all year round. With Cooking Matters classes and grocery store tours, health fairs, nutrition talks, balanced meals going into every Operation Backpack bag our volunteers fill, and more, we’re pretty much obsessed with making sure that St. Louis has access to healthy food and the skills and knowledge necessary to make healthy choices.

As much as we spend our days and evenings working to help our neighbors eat healthy, however, we don’t often get the chance to stop and celebrate the joys of nutrition education. Luckily, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics promotes National Nutrition Month®: a month for all of us nutrition educators to share highlights from the work we do in the community and other fun, nutritious and delicious content for you, our readers, to enjoy!

Are you ready to “Bite into a Healthy Lifestyle?” Check out some of our recipes or those at www.cookingmatters.org for simple, healthy, and affordable meal ideas. You may also be interested in the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Good Nutrition Reading List. Or, just stay tuned for more stories, recipes, and tips from the Operation Food Search nutrition and culinary education team throughout the month of March!
