SCHOOL BREAKFAST
SUCCESS STORY

Once our school embraced the salad bar our principal thought it might be a great idea to include an oatmeal breakfast bar. The cooks cook the oatmeal. The salad bar station is used for oatmeal toppings such as fresh blueberries, granola, brown sugar, raisins etc.

It has just been introduced and we found that some students had never eaten oatmeal before.
