Back by popular demand Health & Wellness is bringing back the "Just Try
It" program this Thursday March 26th during lunch periods for grades K8.
For those who aren't familiar with this program, the Health & Wellness
committee will be offering students samples of healthy snacks and
recipes on a monthly basis. They will get a sticker that says "I Tried It" to
remind parents to ask them how they liked the food they sampled and we
encourage families to try these simple recipes at home! Our recipes will
be all natural and try to have 5 or less ingredients. Just like last year, the
food samples will vary and just like many groceries/restaurants our
ingredients will be nut free BUT may have been exposed to facilities that handle nuts and eggs so
if this is a concern, we don't recommend students with these allergies to sample the food at this
time. Any questions please email [email protected]
This Month's "Just Try It!"
Brownie makeovers! Forget about the eggs, oil and/or butter. Substitute it with a can of all
natural pumpkin! Look in your child's backpack THURSDAY for this simple recipe along with the
health benefits from adding more pumpkin to your diet. Stay tuned, Pacelli getting healthy!
