If making kabobs for the grill, some firmer vegetables, such as carrots and Brussels sprouts, may need to be precooked slightly softer texture. • Steam in microwave with few drops of water and use low sodium seasoning. Cover well to cook. Make extra to use in salads later. • Broil tomatoes, broccoli, cabbage quarters, onion, peppers and squash in oven with fat-free Italian dressing.

  • EFNEP Cultural Foods Substitution Guide
    EFNEP Chinese Foods Substitution Guide Assists educators with entering Chinese foods into Web-NEERs Use with the Food Tracker….What I ate yesterday form Sample Schneider C, Donohue S, McMurdo T, Fetter D, Hudson S, Podell M. EFNEP Chinese Foods Substitution Guide. University of California Cooperative Extension. ©2013, Regents of the University of California. Graphic Designer Sara Hudson. The University of California does not discriminate in any of its policies, procedures or practices. The University is an affirmative action/ equal opportunity employer. Sample Information for Educators (This guide contains only Chinese foods) The Chinese Foods Substitution Guide will be used when entering Food Tracker recall data into WebNEERS. Many of our participants come from diverse cultural backgrounds. When collecting dietary recalls, many of the cultural foods listed on participants’ Food Trackers are not found in the WebNEERs database. The Chinese Foods Substitution Guide matches Chinese foods that are not found in WebNEERS to foods with similar nutritional value that are found in WebNEERS. This guide will make entering participants’ Food Tracker data into WebNEERS easier for you, the EFNEP nutrition educator. How Was the Guide Developed? A list of common, traditional Cultural foods not found in WebNEERS was developed based on educator interviews. Nutritional analysis was performed for one portion of each item using a nutrition database called ESHA Food Processor. Traditional Cultural foods were matched to nutritionally comparable foods that are found in WebNEERS. For example, let’s say your participant wrote in their Food Tracker that they had 16 fl oz of Agua Fresca. When you look up Agua Fresca in the Guide it is matched to Strawberry Flavored Drink, a WebNEERS food substitution with a similar nutrient profile.

  • Meals for Easy Swallowing
    1 INTRODUCTION Swallowing can become a significant problem for patients with ALS; and the joys and pleasures of eating become replaced with discomfort and anxiety. At an early stage patients may begin to have difficulty with foods such as popcorn, cornbread or nuts, and choking episodes may occur. Subsequently other foods cannot be swallowed readily, and the effort of chewing and swallowing turns a pleasurable experience into a burden. For the patient, the act of swallowing becomes compromised and the ordeal of eating becomes more time consuming. For the spouse, the task of preparing edible and appetizing foods poses an increasing challenge. The following collection of recipes is derived from our patients and their creative spouses who translated their caring into foods that look good, taste good, are easy to chew and to swallow, and minimize discomfort. Included are recipes for meats and other protein containing foods, fruits or fruit drinks, vegetables or dishes containing vegetables, as well as breads. Selections of beverages, desserts, and sauces are provided to add needed fat and calories to the diet. A balanced diet normally supplies enough nutrients for daily needs plus some extra. It is recommended that daily menu plans be made using the Basic Four Food Groups as the backbone. The suggested amounts are: Food GrouD Amount Per Dav Eauivalent to One Serving Milk 2 servings 1 cup pudding 1 cup milk or yogurt 1-3/4 cups ice cream 1-1/2 02. cheese 2 cups cottage cheese Meat 2 servings 2 02. lean meat, fish, poultry 2 eggs 4 Tbsps.
