What's for Lunch - Tues., 11/13

Cup of Soup
White Meat Chicken Tenders
Whole Grain Roll
Fresh, Long Island-Grown Cauliflower with Oil & Garlic
Baked Potato “Puffs”
More Salad Bar Veggie Sides
NY State Apple Slices

These are differently-shaped nuggets. The chicken is from Tyson. The ingredients are: Chicken breast tenderloins, water, modified food starch, sodium phosphates, salt. PREDUSTED WITH: Enriched wheat flour (enriched with niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), wheat gluten, salt. BATTERED WITH: Water, enriched bleached wheat flour (enriched with niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), modified corn starch, salt, dextrose, spices, garlic powder, xanthan gum, oleoresin paprika and annatto. BREADED WITH: Enriched wheat flour (enriched with niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), salt, spices, garlic powder, extractives of paprika, natural flavors (spice extractives). Breading set in vegetable oil.  The serving size of two pieces - which is what elementary students get - has 14g of fat and 580mg of sodium.


Roll is whole grain - but not necessarily 100% whole grain.


I'm excited about the cauliflower. I am not excited about he "puffs" - these are tater tots and I thought they were long since vanquished.
