Food and Nutrition I



Food and Nutrition I looks at what and how to eat, not just how to cook.  
We focus on incorporating healthy eating patternsto one's lifestyle, and focus several weeks on sports nutrition and its ability to make (or break) an athlete.Time management in the preparation of food, safety and food preparation techniques, and the amount of money spent and saved on food is addressed.  The importance of planning, preparing, and serving nutritionally adequate meals
based upon the Food Guide Pyramid and the Dietary Guidelines are emphasized.
