We had a BLAST this past weekend at Health Fest! Our educators and agent worked together to make white chicken chili, and it was a HIT! Our team looks forward to this event each year and is already working to come up with a fun new recipe for next year! 👩🏽‍🍳Oschner-Lsu Health Shreveport sure knows how to put on an AMAZING event!🌟

July was filled with good vibes and even better EATS!! In Bossier, our Agent, Ashlynn Taylor, hosted a CHEF Camp at one of our youth sites. ☺️ Participants were able to learn about all things nutrition and apply what they learned in the kitchen👩🏽‍🍳. Participants especially enjoyed making whole wheat bread and ice cream! 🥖🍦

We look forward to hosting our next CHEF Camp soon! ♥️

National Watermelon Day (August 3rd)
Sweet, juicy and packed with refreshing goodness- watermelon
is the perfect summertime treat! Not only is it delicious, but it is
also a great way to stay hydrated since it’s made up of more
than 90% water.

Our July Highlights Are INNN! 🌟

Leona Camel-Clinton, Caddo Parish nutrition educator, has been busy recruiting EFNEP participants! This month, she partnered with Caddo Parish Parks and Recreation by providing nutrition education at a basketball camp highlighting hydration and wellness. 🏀💦 She was also able to meet Robert Williams, NBA player for Portland Trailblazers and Vivian, La native! ☺️

Dee Blackwell, Caddo Parish nutrition educator, continues to do BIG things at Gabriel’s Closet. This month, she highlighted a summer fav and whipped up a satsuma salad for her participants. 🍊Her participants raved about how refreshing and easy this recipe was.👩🏽‍🍳

We are so proud of the continued work that our educators do! We look forward to seeing what August brings.☀️

A well-organized fridge helps keep food safe and fresh. Store leftovers in sealed containers, keep raw and ready-to-eat foods separate, and clean spills right away to reduce the risk of illness. Safe food storage reduces waste, saves money and helps protect your family from foodborne illness. http://tiny.cc/r6h2101
