Salad Bars
Salad bars are a great addition to school lunch programs. Salad bars can be served as a complete meal with a grain and a protein/protein alternate option on the bar, or as the daily fruit and vegetable options to complete a meal. These bars are the perfect vehicle to increase veggie comsumption for the USDA required vegetable groups!
