Here are the pictures from our resident nutrition expert, Chef Nicole Miller.

She brought fresh, local, raw, kale to Brookeside Montessori School on Thursday, January 14th and helped the children try it raw (Kale/Granny Apple juice) and prepared (Fresh Kale Chips and Kale Saute’!) All classes participated. Our favorite overall was the raw juice!  It was exactly the color of our green room and tasted like a little bit of sunshine in a cup! The children drank it right up!

Chef Nikki will be presenting fresh, local healthy lunch box ideas to staff and parents in the Fall!  We really look forward to it!
