measurement.
Each square represents
1 portion of its respective food group.


4 portions of grains 3-8oz a day, half of that as whole grains

5 portions of vegetables
thats about 1-3 cups a day.

3 portions of protein
which is about 3-6 oz a day.

2 portions of fruit
about 1-2 cups a day.

1 portion of dairy sparingly,
which can be around 5% daily



Mix and match recipe cards to fill your bar your way, every day.
Notice how each recipe has portions that add up to a full bar.
The lighter color shows missing portions, fill these bars to ensure balanced nutrition.
