Culinary Demos at ESE’s ‘New Child Care Meal Pattern Standards’ Training Day

On Wednesday, January 18, 2017 Child and Adult Care Food Program sponsors and providers from across Massachusetts came together for a professional development event hosted by the MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, Office for Food and Nutrition Programs, with culinary demonstration stations presented by The John C. Stalker Institute through a USDA Team Nutrition grant, Massachusetts Children’s Access to Meals Planned Smart (MassCAMPS).

After lunch participants divided into four groups that rotated through four culinary stations. Each station demonstrated a reimbursable recipe including the cooking techniques to achieve the best product possible. All demonstrated recipes and healthy cooking techniques represented methods that met a new standard or best practice of the updated CACFP Meal Pattern.

The next ESE ‘New Child Care Meal Pattern Standards’ Training Day will be Tuesday, March 14, 2017 in Westborough, MA. If you are a CACFP sponsor or provider, you are invited to sign up to attend this training.
