Helping Kids Eat Right and Feel Bright
It’s amazing how much healthy food helps our kids feel and do their best. Nutrient-rich foods support cognitive functions like memory and concentration. Essential nutrients help brain development so that kids can learn and thrive at school.
And developing a taste for healthy food when we’re young helps establish lifelong habits that will reduce the risk of chronic diseases later in life.
So, with 30% of Canadian children battling obesity and unhealthy weight, we say it’s time for schools to replace pizza days with delicious food that supports the health of our kids while teaching them to love foods that help them feel strong and bright.
SERVING UP THE GOOD STUFF
At Mad Radish, we’re parents too, and we’ve been so disappointed by the food at our kids’ schools that we decided to take action. Packed with protein, fibre and nutrients, we know that our Lil’ Bowls are a great fit for school lunch programs.
So, we decided to drop the price as low as $5.50, making these craveable bowls as affordable as possible. And because they are served at schools, they are tax-exempt!
With a full serving of oven-roasted protein, brown rice, 2-3 ingredients and one of our mouthwatering dressings, this bowl might be little but it packs a punch.
Kids can choose between chicken or tofu and timid palates can skip the dressing. Note: the Mexican Caesar dressing has a little kick.
Our chicken is halal-certified, raised in Ontario and 100% natural.
