Tips From Chef Todd 

 

Each month, NBFA Chef and Food Service Supervisor Todd Daigle will provide healthy tips on the recipe to give more options for taste or dietary restrictions. 

 

Don’t Have Almonds in the Cabinet? Swap almonds for walnuts or pecans. 

Not a Fan of Granny Smith Apples? Gala apples provide a sweet, milder flavor to use instead.
