Hey, superhero parents! We know you care about your kids' nutrition, so let's talk portion sizes and calories in our scrumptious meals:
Portion Sizes:
- Our regular-sized entrees are designed to be around 400 calories, perfect for Preschool through 5th-grade students. Yum!
- Feeling hungry? Our large-sized entrees are about 550 calories, ideal for 6th graders through high schoolers. They've got bigger appetites, after all!
- Cold entrees are only available in regular sizes. We've got something for everyone!
Recipe Design and Nutrition:
- When crafting our recipes, we follow the USDA Recommended Daily Allowances and Guidelines for Healthy Lunches. Your kids' well-being is our priority!
- Our regular portions are just right for younger students, while the large portions are geared toward older ones. But we get it, some kids have even bigger appetites!
What's Different in Large Portions:
- Hold on, it's not a 'double' lunch! In our large portions, we amp up the protein portion (like chicken and beef) by about 33-50%. Protein power!
- The carbohydrate portion usually remains the same, except for pasta entrees. They get an extra 4 oz of cooked pasta. Yummy goodness!
Double the Fun - Pizza Time!
- Our pizza portions bring extra joy. A regular portion is one slice, but in the large portion, they get two slices! Pizza party, anyone?
All About the Extras:
- Every lunch includes an option to order sides, fruits and/or veggies, and a beverage. It's a well-rounded lunchtime adventure!
- Keep in mind that nutrition information for the lunches doesn't include the delightful extras.
