We should all aim to get 60-minutes of physical activity throughout the day. The good news is that smaller bouts of activity that add up to 60-minutes are just as beneficial as one longer one!
Nutrition and Healthy Eating
Do your parents ever ask you “what do you want for dinner?” Today, you should try to answer that question by planning a healthful dinner for your family! When we think of a meal according to the MyPlate guidelines, it reminds us that we should be eating fruits, vegetables, grains, protein and dairy every day. Each of the food groups are represented in different sections of the plate. But, this doesn’t mean that foods need to be separated out on our plates! Some of our favorite healthy foods are a mix of food groups.
For today’s challenge, try to plan out more healthy meals for your family using this MyPlate Menu Planner! Need some inspiration? Visit this online Recipe Box for ideas! If you’re not sure about what food group some of your foods fall in, try using this guide.
