Healthy Recipe of the Week
Initiatives: Healthy Recipe of the Week
Grocery displays, like this one at Foodland-Kittanning, were designed and constructed by Lenape Tech students under the direction of CADD/Pre-Engineering instructor, Heather M. Simpson.
A Community Effort Toward Healthy Eating
As part of HEALTHY Armstrong's commitment to a healthy community, we have developed a countywide event to promote healthy eating. The Healthy Recipe of the Week campaign focuses on helping residents understand the importance of proper food choices, nutritional content and portion control. View or Download Recipes Now »
At several grocery stores throughout the County, weekly recipes are featured in a prominent grocery display and provided to residents so they have easy access to healthy food choices.
This event is featured at the following participating local grocery stores:
- Foodland - Kittanning
- Shop 'n Save - Kittanning
- Sprankle's Neighborhood Market - Leechburg
- DiMaio's - Rural Valley
- Shop N' Save - North Apollo
We encourage you to visit one of these grocery stores to pick up a healty recipe or two. Making the right food choices is the first step to improving your health and the health of your family.
Healthy AND Delicious!
One community member recently thanked us for the Healthy Recipe displays, stating that she has used a number of the healthy recipes from the displays in her favorite grocery store. She especially liked the cranberry pumpkin muffins. “I made lots of cranberry pumpkin muffins around the Holidays. My friends and family loved them!”
“I have tested some of the healthy recipes on my husband and he likes them. One of our favorites is the turkey salad with orange vinaigrette.”
-Kay Owen, Project Director, HEALTHY Armstrong
"My family and I have tried the healthy recipes and we like them."
-Dave Kristofic, Elderton High School Principal
