Tuesday will be Sample Day!

This Tuesday, your kids will be given a chance to try a Quinoa* salad sample at lunch - whether they are buying or bringing lunch that day - and given a chance to vote thumbs up or thumbs down. Please ask them to try this healthy grain-like protein from the Andes region of South America. The ingredients will be: Quinoa, red onion, celery, dried cranberries, salt, pepper, balsamic vinaigrette, and a slice of cucumber.
 
* Quinoa  (pronounced KEEN-wah) is actually a seed. It is a complete protein but often used in dishes the same way you might use rice or couscous.
