Organic String Cheese Spanish Fork UT

Healthful, organic choices make packing nutritious school lunches simple. Add this fun, unusual side dish to your child’s brown-bag lunch, alongside a sandwich or wrap. For added color and nutrition, throw in some slivered sweet red peppers. “What we give our children to eat today helps determine their future health,” says Terese Allen, food editor at Organic Valley . “Childhood is when eating habits are formed. If healthy choices are made, we stand a good chance of reducing our kids’ risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity and other diseases.” String Cheese “Slaw” Makes 6 to 8 servings
