Read the label on a cereal box to find the word “whole” listed with the first ingredient. For a change, try brown rice or whole-wheat pasta. When baking, substitute whole- wheat or oat flour for up to half of the flour in a recipe. Eat whole-grain crackers. Once a week or more, try a lowfat meatless meal or main dish that features whole grains (such as red beans and brown rice). 8 Team Up At Home Team Nutrition Activity Book Parent’s Page
