Full course description
The CACFP meal patterns are designed to meet the nutritional needs of children, to be consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs), and to be appetizing. The meal pattern requirements will assist the menu planner in providing well-balanced meals and snacks that provide the appropriate amount of energy and nutrients a child needs during critical stages of growth. In this training we will go over the meal pattern guidelines that are required to meet and the necessary records that an institution or school must keep.
