MyPlate School Breakfast Flier

MYPLATE GUIDE TO SCHOOL BREAKFAST

FRUITS: A full cup of fruit is available everyday, providing nutrients that are important for kids' health, such as potassium, dietary fiber, vitamin C, and folate (folic acid).

VEGETABLES: Every breakfast does not include vegetables, but schools may offer them in place of fruits.

PROTEIN FOODS: Some breakfast menus may offer items such as eggs, nuts, or meats to pair with whole-grain options.

GRAINS: Starting every day the whole grains way gives kids and teens B vitamins, minerals, and fiber to feel fuller longer so they stay alert to concentrate at school.

MILK: Kids and teens need the calcium, protein, and vitamin D found in milk for strong bones, teeth, and muscles.
