- Paninis
- Peach month
- And the 2nd week of August is Nat’l apple week (wahoo apples!)

What better way to instill healthful cooking & eating habits than by promoting childhood nutrition.
The Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics’ focus for this celebratory month is to encourage kids (well, really families) to
-shop smart
-cook healthy
-eat right
Here’s one idea how to do so:
What are you doing to shop smarter, cook healthier, and eat right-er? ok I tried.
