Healthy Habits recipes are featured in our nutrition education programs and shared virtually with local member agencies, and across the web through the Food Bank’s YouTube channel and social media accounts. These recipes teach guests how to prepare healthy meals on a limited budget, using ingredients often found on food pantry shelves. Recorded recipes and educational sessions can be used by anyone with internet access. The Healthy Habits nutrition education team has made the virtual work they began during the pandemic a permanent fixture of their educational outreach programs. Learn about eating well on a budget, wherever you are!
