The role of food in health has long been recognized but which foods or ingredients can you use to “plus up” your menus to meet the health and nutrition needs of those you serve? In this free, one-hour webinar, registered dietitian and chef Abbie Gellman will discuss the concept of nutrient density and foods and ingredients you can use to plus up your menus to meet the health and nutrition needs of patients and residents – whether it’s helping them to get more calcium in their diet, manage diabetes or reduce their risk of heart disease. You will get practical menu ideas for your foodservice menus that promote healthful eating and deliver on great taste!
