Food Service of the Uruguayan American School

The Uruguayan American School (UAS) is a private college preparatory school enrolling approximately 320 international and host country students in Nursery through Grade 12.
My job here as a School Nutritionist is to partner with the outsourced food service provider to ensure a nutritionally sound food program that supports healthy food habits while maintaining customer satisfaction. Our mission is to offer fresh, seasonal and local market cuisine.
Lunches and snacks are prepared according to our law N° 19.140, which promotes healthy eating habits in schools.
Also, I am working to develop and implement a comprehensive nutrition education program using school cafeterias and vegetable garden as learning laboratories.
