Pulaski County Public Schools

New Recipe Alert!!

The School Nutrition Program (SNP) is sending out a new recipe alert.

During the month of September, our middle and high school aged students will see two new recipes highlighted on the menu.  

On September 17^th, our high school students will have “Strawberry Glazed Chicken Salad” on the salad bar.  This recipe features strawberries, ginger and balsamic flavored chicken on a bed of leafy greens.  Strawberries are grown right here in VA and are the Harvest of the Month fruit in May each year.  Lettuce is the Harvest of the Month vegetable in April each year.

On September 23, our middle and high school students will have “Garden Ranch & Chili Rice”. This rice is packed full of traditional ranch and chili flavors, and it also boasts a color festival of corn, fresh bell peppers and fresh onions.  Peppers and onions are also both crops we grow right here in VA, and sweet bell peppers are the Harvest of the Month vegetable for September.

Both of these recipes have been developed, tested and tried by our very own Pulaski County SNP kitchens.

We’re so excited to bring our students locally-grown recipes featuring crops grown right here in VA.

Let’s eat!
