What are Meal Patterns? Child & Adult Meal Patterns: Made up of four components: Fluid Milk Meat/ Meat Alternates Grains/Breads Vegetables/Fruits

ACTIVITY: CACFP Meal Patterns CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 ACTIVITY: CACFP Meal Patterns Review CACFP Meal Patterns for Children in “Big Red,” Chapter 8, pg. 8.7 We are serving 3-year-olds applesauce, PBJ and milk. (Write on flipchart/white board) *What would be the serving of each for snack? *What would be the serving of each for supper? Now, we have your students. Tell me the age and what serving for each. “(Find the portion size for…..???”)

What Are Creditable Foods? CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 What Are Creditable Foods? CACFP Manual "Big Red" Foods that may be counted toward meeting meal pattern requirements Big Red, Chapter 8 Non-Credible Foods List Exhibit 23.26 See the salmon-colored handout, “Non-creditable Foods” Take a minute and look down the lists. What questions do you have? Why is potato not a creditable Bread/Grain? (Handout)

Component: Grains/Breads Required component for Supper Meals May be one of two required components for Snacks

Component: Grains/Breads Accompaniment to meal (rolls, crackers, etc.) Integral part of main dish (pizza, spaghetti, sandwich, etc.) Side dish (rice, noodles, etc.)

Food Rules: Grains/Breads (Big Red, Chapter 8) CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Food Rules: Grains/Breads (Big Red, Chapter 8) All Grain/Bread foods must be whole grain or made from enriched grain flour First ingredient on label must state “enriched” or indicate whole grain Pass out G/B food labels. Discuss.

Food Rules: Grains/Breads CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Food Rules: Grains/Breads Some items may only be served for Snacks Toaster Pastries Coffee Cake Granola Bars Doughnuts Fruit Turnovers Grain Fruit Bars Sweet Rolls Cookies Brownies Cakes Dessert Pies Why would you want to limit the service of these items on your menus? No more than twice per week for Snacks

“Easy to Use” Grains and Breads Chart CACFP Manual "Big Red" (Refer to Handout in Packet)

ACTIVITY: Find the serving size 1. How many saltine crackers would you serve with a bowl of chili in a reimbursable Supper for 6-18 year olds? 2. What is the serving size for noodles for 6-18 year olds for Supper? 3. How many graham crackers would you serve an 8 year old for a reimbursable Snack?

Component: Meat/Meat Alternates Required for Supper Meals Optional for Snacks Meats: Meat, Poultry or Fish Meat Alternates: Cooked dry beans/peas/lentils Cheese Cottage Cheese Eggs Nuts & Seeds Peanut Butter Yogurt Alternate Protein Products (APP)

Food Rules: Meat/Meat Alternates Serving sizes are based on cooked lean meat without bones. Cooked dry beans/peas/lentils may fulfill the M/MA component requirement OR the vegetable/fruit component requirement, but not both components in the same meal. Nuts or seeds may fulfill only ½ of M/MA serving size requirement.

Alternate Protein Products (APP’s) CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Alternate Protein Products (APP’s) Definition: Commercially produced non-meat items that can be credited as Meat/Meat Alternates Currently: Short list of approved products listed Big Red, Exhibit 23.1 Future: ODE will add products as manufacturers submit qualifying information Go to 23.1 in Big Red (Refer to Exhibit 23.1)

Non-Creditable Meat/Meat Alternates Game meats, home-slaughtered meat, and non-commercially caught fish are not allowed. Bacon is not creditable. Canned cheese sauce or powdered cheese sauce mix are not creditable. Cream cheese is not creditable. (Refer to Exhibit 23.26)

Food Rules: Vegetable/Fruit Juices Juice may not fulfill more than half the V/F meal pattern requirement for Supper meals Juices must be pasteurized. Juice cannot be served for Snacks when milk is the only other component served.

Non-Creditable Vegetables/Fruits CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Non-Creditable Vegetables/Fruits Home canned products are not creditable for health and safety reasons. It is impractical to serve only raisins or other dried fruit to meet the vegetable/fruit requirement. (Refer to Exhibit 23.26) Review this statement for allowance of minimum serving of dried fruits.

CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Meal Service Styles Restaurant Style Family Style Combination Restaurant/Family Style Cafeteria Style Have class read the pages. (Refer to Big Red, Page 8.22)

Meal Service Styles, cont’d CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Meal Service Styles, cont’d Restaurant Style All components portioned and served together on plate/cup for individual participants. Who is serving Restaurant Style? Discuss

Meal Service Styles, cont’d CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Meal Service Styles, cont’d Family Style All components are placed on table in communal serving dishes and participants serve themselves. Participants must be able to serve themselves with minimal help from supervising adults. Enough food must be on the table or “readily available” to give every participant and all adults eating at the table full portions of all meal components. This rule applies ONLY to Family Style Meal Service. Supervising adults must actively encourage children to take full servings of all components. Who is serving Family Style? Discuss

Meal Service Styles, cont’d CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Meal Service Styles, cont’d Combination Restaurant/Family Style Full portions of some foods are served on each child’s plate/cup and some foods are placed on the table in communal serving dishes. All foods must be served to participants at the same time – cannot serve child main dish and milk, then bring serving dishes with vegetable, fruit and bread to the table ten minutes later. Who will be using Combination Style service? Discuss

Meal Service Styles, cont’d CACFP Meal Pattern Requirments 4/08 Meal Service Styles, cont’d Cafeteria Style Common in school settings where children select food from a cafeteria line. Also common in some adult day care programs Participants must take at least the minimum required portion of all meal pattern components before leaving the line because no food is available at the dining table. Program staff must monitor the end of the line to insure reimbursable meals are taken. Who will be using Cafeteria Style? Discuss No O vs S allowed in CACFP.

Meal Service Styles Restaurant Style Family Style All components portioned and served together on plate/cup for individual participants. Family Style All components are placed on table in communal serving dishes and participants serve themselves. Combination Restaurant/Family Style Full portions of some items are served on plate to each participant with some foods placed on the table in communal serving dishes. Cafeteria Style Participants select food from a cafeteria line. No food is served at the dining table.

Meal Counts Meal counts must be taken and recorded at the “point-of-service” Point-of-service means when the participant has received a reimbursable meal in a cafeteria line, or when the participant is seated at the dining table with the complete meal set on the table

Meal Counts Both the Actual Count method and Head Count method require a Point-of-service meal count Participants who come to the table with the intention of eating and are served a reimbursable meal may be included in the meal count, even if they do not eat.

Meal Counts The following meal count methods are not acceptable: Counting the number of meals sent by the kitchen Counting the number of leftovers Counting trays or plates Using attendance or “teachers’ memory”
