April 13, 2012 - Calling all school nutrition professionals! You know how much your students love your healthy, tasty cafeteria offerings. But how do they stack up against school meals served by your peers across the country? Enter Rachael Ray’s Yum-o! Healthy School Meals Contest to find out! 

Presented by the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, Yum-o! and SNA, this competition is designed to spotlight creative meals from school nutritional professionals across the country.  The Grand Prize winner will earn a trip to New York City for two, including airfare, hotel accommodations, tickets to the Rachael Ray Show and a meal stipend.  The winner will also be featured in School Nutrition magazine and earn a free registration to ANC Kansas City in 2013. 

The judges are searching for innovative, delicious, nutritious school lunches that appeal to students and can be easily replicated in school nutrition operations. Build your healthy tray, including a meat/meat alternate, bread/grain, vegetables and fruit.
