Show LYNN SAYS: Do your menus meet nutritive requirements, and appetite appeal, ap-peal, too? Careful, now. Here are 10 points on which to check your meals for appetite appeal: 1. Avoid repeating the same food in one meal. 2. Avoid serving more than one strongly flavored or highly seasoned sea-soned food in a meal. 3. Avoid using too much of one type of food in a meal such as spaghetti as a main dish and rice pudding for dessert. 4. Use as much texture contrast con-trast as possible have some soft, some solid, and some crisp food in each meal. 5. Get flavor balance in your menus by serving some sweet, some bland, and some acid foods each meal. 6. Serve some hot and some cold foods each meal. 7. Serve foods whose colors look well together and avoid serving colorless foods in one meal. 8. Try to get contrast in size and shape in the foods served. 9. Serve leftovers in a new form. 10. Avoid serving the same food combinations too often. Serve some other tart fruit with your pork, instead of the stand-by applesauce. |
