USA Pulses EU Projects: Healthy School Menus
We have noticed a general increase in public and private awareness and involvement in making school menus healthier. In Spain, we have collaborated with various initiatives to facilitate greater consumption of pulses in school canteens:
- Catering Arcasa: School and institutional catering management specialists. We developed various pulse-based dishes for them to use in school kitchens.
- Eurest: Leading institutional catering company offering catering services for companies, schools, hospitals and carehomes. We helped them develop pulse-based dishes to add to their meal plans.
- Aleanutri – professional nutritionists. Legumechef collaborated with Aleanutri on a project for the regional Catalan government to introduce more pulses and improve school menus.
