Dietary Guidelines
 Two overarching concepts
1. Maintain calorie balance over time to achieve and sustain a
healthy weight
2. Focus on consuming nutrient-rich foods and beverages
7
2010 Key Recommendations
 Increase vegetable and fruit intake
 Eat a variety of vegetables, especially dark green and red and
orange vegetables and beans and peas
 Consume at least half of all grains as whole grains. Increase
whole grain intake by replacing refined grains with whole
grains
 Increase intake of fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products,
such as milk, yogurt, cheese, or fortified soy beverages
8
Food-Based Menu Planning
5 food components in school meals
 Fruits
 Vegetables
 Grains
 Meat/Meat Alternate
 Milk
Food component – one of the five food groups which comprise reimbursable meals
9
Activity
 Match the foods to the correct food component
10
Creditable Fruits Include:
 Fresh, Frozen, Dried, 100% Fruit Juice

Fruit
Component
11
100% fruit juice cannot exceed ½ total weekly
vegetable offering
 Fruit canned in light syrup, water, or 100%
fruit juice
 Minimum creditable serving is 1/8 cup
 Credit as volume served, with exception of
dried fruit which credits as twice the volume
Vegetable Component and Subgroups
 Fresh, frozen, canned, 100% vegetable juice

Vegetable
Component
12
100% vegetable juice cannot exceed ½ total
weekly vegetable offering
 Organized into subgroups based on their
nutrition content
 Minimum creditable serving is 1/8 cup
 Credit as volume served, with exception to
leafy greens (1/2 of total volume)
Whole grain-rich Grains and Breads
 All grains servings offered must be whole

 When crediting the meat/meat alternate as a grain item in
breakfast:
 Must also offer at least one ounce equivalent of grains daily
 Must count the meat/meat alternate toward the daily and weekly
grain minimums and the weekly dietary specifications

 Must offer both of these subgroups to students on an additional
day

Meal Pattern Documentation
Requirements
 SFAs are required to maintain the following documentation (at a
minimum) to demonstrate compliance with the meal pattern
requirements:
 Meal pattern contribution documentation
 Product information (e.g. product formulation statements, Child
Nutrition labels, etc.)
 Recipes
 Menus
 Production records
 Receipts/Invoices

Kitchen Math
 Fruit – cups
 Vegetable – cups
 Grains – ounces (weight)
 Meat/Meat Alternate – ounces (weight)
 Milk – cups or fluid ounces
Important! Do Not Confuse
Weight and Volume Measure
Weight is ounces,
lbs, etc. for
meats, cheese,
grains, breads
Tool: scale
Volume is fluid
ounces for milk,
juice and portion
sizes of fruit and
vegetables
Tools: measuring
cup, qt, gal, etc
What Do you want to serve?
The Production records says “4oz”
2 Cups of lettuce = 4 oz by weight
½ cup (4 fl. Oz)
which is 1 oz by
weight or 2 leaves.
Food Buying Guide
Overview

The Food Buying Guide
 The Food Buying Guide (FBG) helps you:
 Buy the right amount of food
 Determine the contribution each food makes toward the meal
pattern requirements

Fruits and Vegetables
54
Fruits and Vegetables
 All servings are measured by volume not weight
 Find the weight (pounds, ounces) converted to volume (cups,
teaspoons, tablespoons) in the Food Buying Guide
 1/8 cup is the smallest creditable amount
Fruits and Vegetables
Volume exceptions:
 Raw leafy greens count for 1/2 the volume (1 cup spinach and
romaine mixture = ½ cup dark green vegetable)
 Dried fruit count as 2x the volume (1/4 cup raisins = ½ cup fruit)
Vegetable subgroup reminders:
 To credit mixtures to a specific vegetable subgroup, you need to
know the exact quantities of each vegetable within the mixture
 If you cannot verify, you can count non-starchy mixtures as
“other” and starchy mixtures as “additional”
