Objectives:

1. Understand the new breakfast meal pattern, component requirements and calorie ranges;

2. Take away one week’s worth of menu ideas;

3. Find ways to tweak menus already in use to fit the new pattern


LIVE IN THE MOMENT!


General Requirements:

1. All SFAs must use FOOD BASED MENU PLANNING for breakfast;

2. Nutrient Standard and Enhanced are gone;

3. We will all use one way to plan breakfast


•K-5•6-8•9-12•K-12: there is overlap in component requirements and calorie ranges so K-12 is possible

Three age-grade groups:


•K-5: 350-500 calories•6-8: 400-550 calories•9-12: 450-600 calories•K-12: 450-500 calories• K-8: 400-500 caloriesCalorie average over the WEEK



•K-5: minimum 7 grain oz eq/week•6-8: minimum 8 grain oz eq/week•9-12: minimum 9 grain oz eq/week

MAXIMUM LIMIT has been lifted on grain just as it has been for lunch for school year 2013-2014.



3 Daily Breakfast component requirements:

~Grain ~Fruit ~Milk

Food component: one of 3 food groups that comprise reimbursable breakfasts

Food item: a specific food offered within the 3 food components; must offer at least 4 food items daily; under OVS, student may decline only one, even if more than 4 items are offered


“Serve” OR “Offer vs. Serve”

•Under OVS for SY 2013-2014, SFA must offer at least 4 food items and students may decline one food item. •Food items selected may be from any of the required components and must be in at least the minimum daily portions:

ie: 1oz eq grain; 1/2cup fruit/juice; 1 cup milk

“SERVE” is an OPTION at BREAKFAST for all grades K-12, which is different from lunch where 9-12 MUST be OVS.


Let’s start with the two easiest:

• MILK

• FRUIT/VEGETABLE/100% JUICE


Food Component: MILK•MUST offer at least two options;•MUST offer 1 cup daily to all grade-groups;•MUST offer ONLY:

~ 1%/low-fat unflavored;~ skim/fat-free unflavored;~ skim/fat-free flavored;

•Applies to all service types: traditional, breakfast in the classroom, grab-n-go, etc.


•MUST offer at least ½ cup fruit/vegetable/100% juice each day to all grade groups;•NO change to existing juice/fruit/vegetable component;•Vegetables and fruits may be offered interchangeably;•NO substitution requirements, NO vegetable sub-group requirements

Food Component: FRUIT


Food Component: FRUIT•Juice must be 100% juice;

•NO limitations on juice in SY 2013-2014;

•Students are NOT required to take fruit under OVS for SY 2013-2014. But do remember: student may only decline one food item at breakfast under OVS.


•Work toward 1 cup fruit/day;

•Work toward no more than half fruit/vegetable offerings in form of juice starting SY 2014-2015;

•Many SFAs are already offering students 1 cup fruit/vegetable/ or 100% juice at breakfast

Food Component: FRUIT


Now let’s look at GRAIN


To review the required components for breakfast:

GRAIN GRAIN

FRUIT MILK


•MUST offer at least 1 oz eq of grain each day;•MUST meet weekly minimum for each grade group:

~K-5: 7 oz eq per week minimum~6-8: 8 oz eq per week minimum~9-12: 9 oz eq per week minimum

Food Component: GRAIN

HALF of grain offered must be 50% whole grain-rich SY 2013-2014, same as lunch; all must be whole grain-rich SY 2014-15.


What about large 2oz eq grain items? How are those counted?

GRAIN GRAIN

GRAIN GRAIN GRAINGRAIN


MAY offer meat/meat alternate in place of part of grain component AFTER the minimum daily grains requirement if offered in the menu or planned breakfast

Food Component: GRAINOptional flexibility: substitute meat/meat alternate

A 1 oz eq of meat/meat alternate may credit as 1 oz eq of grains


•MAY offer meat/meat alternate as an extra food and not credit toward grain component;•Meat/meat alternate is NOT required;•Would not count toward a component

Optional Flexibility: Meat/meat alternate as EXTRA


What would it look like to substitute a meat for a grain?

GRAINMEAT/MA in

place of 2nd grain

FRUIT MILK


What might a reimbursable breakfast look like under OVS?

GRAINMEAT/MA in

place of 2nd grain

FRUIT MILK


And a reimbursable breakfast could look like this under OVS:

GRAINMEAT/MA in

place of 2nd grain

FRUIT MILK


What would it look like have meat/meat alternate as an “extra”?

GRAINMEAT/MA as an

extra

FRUIT MILK

GRAIN


So let’s compare:

SUBSTITUE meat/meat alternate for grain this works: yogurt, fruit and milk

EXTRA meat/ma this works: grain, fruit, milk and meat/ma is EXTRA


Recap: Offer vs. Serve

•Under OVS for SY 2013-2014, SFA must offer at least 4 food items and students may decline one food item. •Food items selected may be from any of the required components and must be in at least the minimum daily portions:

~ ie: 1oz eq grain; 1/2cup fruit/juice; 1 cup milk


Let’s look at current minimum for traditional:Does it still work for SY 2013-2014?


Does it still work for SY 2013-2014?

YES!

YES!

NO!


NO!

MUST offer 1 oz eq grain daily…

YES!


What if I offer…and kids can have all?Does this work? Why or why not?


What if I offer…?

Does this work? What do you need to know?

What can be declined?


Multiple Choices:

For an SFA that offers many choices for breakfast (ie: 13 items), the “decline” only one item does not work as the student would have to take 12 of the 13 items. Look at combinations that are possible and EDUCATE-EDUCATE-EDUCATE!


MondayChoose One:

TuesdayChoose one:

Cereal and toast Cereal and toastCereal and yogurt Muffin and yogurt

Bagel w/ cream cheese Breakfast PizzaBreakfast sandwich Breakfast sandwich

Toast and string cheese Toast and string cheeseFRUIT: Choose one: 1/2cup fruit, fresh

unflavored, or skim unflavored


Cereal bar, string cheese: 1-2grain/1 maBreakfast wrap: 1 grain/1 meat/maPancake on a stick: 1-2grain/1 meat/maBreakfast sandwich: 2 grain/1-2 meat/maYogurt parfait: IF it has at least 1 oz GRAIN then yes, with 1 maEgg/cheese patty w/toast: 1 grain/2 ma

Can combination items still work? We think so…

But READ labels and consult the bread/grain chart! Calculate calories!


Q: Where will the “extra” or “substitution” be documented?

A: On the Food Production Records. There is an area on the “breakfast” tab to mark “meat as a substitution for grain”.

The “new "production records are available:•On the DE Web site: www.educateiowa.gov, then•School Nutrition Standards, then•“New Meal Pattern Production Record”



Q: What about potato products for breakfast?

A: For SY 2013-2014:•NO substitution requirements;•NO vegetable sub-group requirements;•Vegetables and fruits may be offered interchangeably;•May offer hash browns and mixed items at breakfast if calories allow


Q: What’s up with the bread/grain chart?

•The NEW bread/grain chart goes into effect SY2013-2014 for breakfast and lunch; •Grain amount increases from 14.75 to 16 grams;•Cereal (flakes/rounds) must be 1cup or 1 oz (many are 15/16oz, ¾ cup so check labels)•Check labels: some 2 oz eq items will now be 1.75 oz eq or less


Q: Will my current menu still work?

A:That depends on what is being offered and how substitutions and/or “extras” are handled. There are so many different ways to do breakfast. Start with what you have and then make additions or subtractions.


Take away messages for breakfast SY 2013-14:

•Calorie Ranges in effect;•3 components offered daily: Grain-Fruit-Milk;•Weekly MINIMUMS for grain with minimum of 1 oz eq grain offered daily;•At least 4 food items offered daily;•½ cup fruit/vegetable/100% juice daily;•Milk: two types; 1% and skim unflavored, skim flavored; •Zero grams trans-fat.

No more meat-meat!
