The SmartFood Ingredient Swaps guide provides simple, practical ways to make popular school menu items healthier.

It includes suggested swaps for pizzas, Mexican dishes, pasta, stir-fries, curries, casseroles, soups and baked items, such as choosing reduced-fat dairy products, lean meats and lower-salt ingredients, while adding more vegetables, legumes and wholegrains.

These small changes can help schools increase the number of GREEN choices on their menus without removing the familiar meals students enjoy.
