Healthy at Home for CPS:
Healthy Recipes
The Consortium to Lower Obesity in Chicago Children (CLOCC) is providing a database of resources to support educators and families working towards Healthy CPS. We understand that there is an overwhelming amount of information available to educators, so we have carefully chosen a select number of tools to highlight in each area. To learn more about CLOCC’s work with CPS, please visit our Schools webpage and feel free to contact us if you have any questions: info@CLOCC.net.
In this section, you will find a list of webpages developed by our partners that contain healthy recipes for snacks, drinks, meals, and desserts. Many of the recipes span different cultures and offer tips and tricks for working on a budget and/or with shelf-stable items.
