Using Vegetables In
Daily Menu Planning
Vegetables deserve better
treatment.
Often the most neglected part
of the menu and complained
about by children, vegetable can,
and should, be a mealtime treat.
Not only do vegetables contri-
bute important nutrients to the
daily diet, but they also offer
unique flavor combinations to
menus and snacks. So it is im-
portant to you and your family
that you be a good vegetable
cook#
Cqiiking vegetables is as rare
an accomplishment as making
the finest angel food cake.
Protect the nutrients found in
vegetables, along with color and
texture, by cooking vegetables
in a small amount of water for
a short time. Cook until just
tender.
if overcooked, nutritional value
and flavor of vegetables will be
lost.
