It’s offi cially summer, and a good cause for celebration with the Fruit and Veggie Fest Fruit and Veggie Fest coming to Fillmore this month! The Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Program (NEOP) collaborates with retail markets all year long to promote fruits and vegetables. On Saturday, July 21st, Super A Foods in Fillmore will host this year’s Fruit and Veggie Fest!Also this month, the Chronic Disease Prevention Program (CDPP) is proud to recognize Ms. Rosalva Bolaños as the Champion in the Kitchen, acknowledged for cooking culturally authentic, tasty and healthy meals from scratch to groups of seniors at the Fillmore Active Adult Center.At the center meals are made from scratch every day. Ms. Bolaños says she is inspired from her own “mama’s” cooking. The fl avors are reminiscent of her native hometown near the neighboring states of Zacatecas and Jalisco in Mexico. Healthier, home-style cooked meals have attracted more customers to the senior meal program. An average of 35 meals are served at the center and an additional 20 meals are delivered to seniors at their homes. This is a fi fty percent increase from eight months ago. Abel Duque, the center’s Parks and Recreation Coordinator, says the reason the program is working so well is because Ms. Bolaños “puts a lot of love into each meal she makes!” Each recipe is approved by the Ventura County Area Agency on Agency (VCAAA). The collaboration with VCAAA nutritionists has been successful. As a result, many of Ms. Bolaños’ own recipes are part of the menu every day. Fresh ingredients such as vegetables and herbs are used in place of salt to make meals more appealing, taste better and healthier for you. For example, Ms. Bolaños sautés tomato and onion with olive oil, lightly tossed with a fresh herb such as oregano or cilantro leaves, to add fl avor and to encourage good nutrition.Here are some more ideas, to keep you eating and cooking healthy this summer:- Use fruits and vegetables in-season: They cost less and taste at their best- Grow a summer garden: It keeps you active and provides fresh, healthy foods- Grill your favorite vegetables on the BBQ- Make “veggie pizza” with the kids- Let your children pick out vegetables and fruit at the store- Visit a local Farmers’ Market And remember, come out to meet Ms. Rosalva Bolaños and the Public Health teams on Sat, July 21st at Fruit & Veggie Fest 2018 at Super A Foods in Fillmore. There will be educational resources, fun activities, health screenings and recipe test tastings for the family!To explore more about eating and cooking healthy, visit these websites: 1) Champions for change, www.CaChampionsForChange.net2) USDA ChooseMyPlate.gov, www.choosemyplate.gov3) Dietary Guidelines for Americans, https://health.gov/dietaryguidelines 1

¡Es tiempo de verano y una buena razón para celebrar con el Festival de Frutas y Verduras 2018 Festival de Frutas y Verduras 2018 que llega a Fillmore este mes! El Programa de Educación Nutricional y Prevención de la Obesidad (NEOP) colabora con los comerciantes de mercados durante todo el año para promover las frutas y verduras.¡El sábado 21 de julio, Super A Foods en Fillmore será el anfi trión del Festival de Frutas y Verduras de este año!También este mes, el Programa de Prevención de Enfermedades Crónicas (CDPP) se enorgullece de reconocer a la Sra. Rosalva Bolaños como la Campeona en la Cocina, por las comidas auténticas, sabrosas y saludables que cocina para los miembros del Centro de Adultos Activos en Fillmore.En el centro, las comidas se preparan frescas todos los días. La Sra. Bolaños dice que la inspiran las enseñanzas de cocina de su propia “mamá”. Los sabores son como los de su tierra natal, un municipio que se avecina a los estados de Zacatecas y Jalisco, en México.Las comidas frescas, sanas y caseras han atraído a más clientes al Programa de Nutrición para Seniors (SNP). Al día se sirve un promedio de 35 comidas en el centro y 20 para hogares. En ocho meses el número de comidas preparadas aumento un cincuenta por ciento. Abel Duque, Coordinador de Parques y Recreación del centro, dice que la razón por la que el programa está funcionando tan bien es porque la Sra. Bolaños “le pone mucho amor en cada comida que prepara.”Cada receta es aprobada por la Agencia sobre el Envejecimiento del Área del Condado de Ventura (VCAAA). La colaboración con las nutricionistas de VCAAA ha sido exitosa. Como resultado, muchas de las recetas de la propia Sra. Bolaños son parte del menú todos los días.En lugar de sal se usan los ingredientes frescos como las verduras y las hierbas para que las comidas sean más atractivas, tengan un mejor sabor y sean más saludables para usted. Por ejemplo, ¡para la base la Sra. Bolaños saltea el tomate y la cebolla con aceite de oliva y la termina con orégano o cilantro fresco!Aquí hay algunas ideas más para mantenerlo comiendo y cocinando saludable este verano:- Elija frutas y verduras de temporada. ¡Cuestan menos y saben mejor!- Cultive un jardín de verano. Es buen ejercicio para usted y le dará alimentos frescos y saludables.- Prepare sus verduras favoritas a la parrilla- Haga una “pizza vegetariana” con los niños- Deje a los niños elegir las verduras y frutas en la tienda- Visite y compre con los niños en los mercados al air libre No se olvide, venga al Festival de Frutas y Verduras 2018 el sábado 21 de julio en Super A Foods en Fillmore. Venga a conocer a la Sra. Rosalva Bolaños y a los equipos de Salud Pública. ¡Habrá recursos educativos, actividades divertidas, exámenes de salud y prueba de recetas saludables para la familia!Para explorar más sobre comer y cocinar saludablemente, visite estos sitios web:1) Champions for change, www.CaChampionsForChange.net2) USDA ChooseMyPlate.gov, www.choosemyplate.gov3) Dietary Guidelines for Americans, https://health.gov/dietaryguidelines 2
