Can any one give me some ideas on some healthy cheap food?

Question

i WOULD LIKE TO START UP A HOT LUNCH PROGRAM AT MY DAUGHTERS SCHOOL ,I NEED IDEAS FOR SOME CHEAP HEALTHY FOOD TO SEARVE???AND THE RECIPIES TOP GO WITH THEM IF YOU HAVE SOME,.THERE ARE 250 KIDS AND A VERY SMALL KITCHEN AREA.

THE CHILDREN ARE IN GRADES K-6

Answer 1

Kids love the lunchables because they are fun and easy to eat... Kids like to eat little stuff. So maybe for one day have crackers (or bagels or pita pieces), cheese (or pb or tuna or chicken salad), some veggies/dip and little cut up fruit.

Try kid faves like chicken, pasta, mac and cheese, grilled cheese, hot dogs (or burgers)--go all beef... but this could get expensive, lunch meats, chicken noodle soup, tacos/burritos, pizza, cheese breadsticks, ravioli, quesadillas, make your own salad/sandwich/wrap. Make sure to get milk, a fruit, and a veggie into each lunch.

Dips are a great idea to incorporate as much as possible.

do a search for school lunch menu to get an idea of what other schools in your area are serving

Answer 2

Chicken is a very price conscious food, but for 250 kids that may not be doable, depending on how much money you have alotted. Salads and wraps are definitely a good idea, and soup, you can make alot of that for a small price. Fruits and veggies are a little more expensive but definitely nutritious. Fruit salad perhaps?

Answer 3

There is no one single Paleo Diet, as our ancestors from all over the world ate dramatically different diets depending on the climate where they lived, their landscape, accessibility to water bodies, and the latitude that they lived. This is a detailed meal plan for the paleo diet https://tr.im/GUnrt

In some cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% plant foods and 10% animal foods, and in other cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% animal foods and 10% plant foods.

For example, our ancestors that lived near the equator had year long access to more plant materials such as root vegetables and various fruits, veggies, and nuts.

On the other hand, our ancestors that lived at higher latitudes further away from the equator only had access to fruits and vegetables seasonally at one specific time period per year, and had larger periods of the year where they ate a higher % of meats, organ meats, fish, and other animal-based foods, or fermented foods that could be stored for winter.

Answer 5

Wraps are always popular...Throw some cold cuts, lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc onto a flour tortilla and roll them up. Serve them w/ chips (or pretzels), a pickle, and a cookie...Or chicken Caesar salads made individually. Warm pre-cooked/pre-sliced chicken breasts and mix them w/ Caesar salads.
