Nutritious Salad Recipes
Cooking Light is working with the Partnership for a Healthier America and USDA’s MyPlate to give anyone looking for healthier options access
to thousands of recipes that will help them create healthy, tasty plates. For more information about creating a healthy plate,
visit www.choosemyplate.gov. Find recipes at http://pinterest.com/MyPlateRecipes/.
A key component of this initiative involves making half of your plate fruits and vegetables. Salads are a great option to
implement this nutritious habit into a long-term healthy lifestyle.
