Tasty Tuesday

Author: Rebecca Miller

Planning Unit: Bell County CES

Major Program: Plate It Up! Kentucky Proud

Plan of Work: Accessing and consuming nutritious foods

Outcome: Initial Outcome

     With more farmers and local grocery stores providing fresh fruits and vegetables in the community, people are looking for ways to prepare those foods and give their families different meal options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The FCS Agent offered a series of cooking classes to provide new recipes using the SNAP ED calendar and Plate It Up recipe cards.

     23 families and homemakers participated in the classes and were given opportunities to try new recipes and practice their cutting, chopping and dicing skills. After the program concluded, 85% of the participants said they would prepare the new recipes at home for their families. 100% now recognize the importance of getting fresh fruits and vegetables in their diet and where to purchase them.
