Seasonal menu suggestions
Examples of menus are always in line with the Mediterranean diet and
traditional Istrian diet.
Every menue contains folowing food:
fish
various meat
seasonal fruit, vegetables and legumes
cereals
whole grains

We suggest not to use food such as: salami, industrial spices, meat
products, and semi-prepared meals.
Our suggestion is to boil and stew food instead of deep fat frying

Primary School Nutrition
Improvement Program in County of
Istria
www.zzjziz.hr
In order to improve nutrition in primary schools we
proposed optimal menus.
Barriers in program implementation are:
lack of kitchen staff
lack of education for kitchen staff
the primary role of schools in education and not in the
preparation of meals
limited financial resources
lack of motivation of parents and school staff.
Each school in Pula applied HACCP(Hazard analysis and
critical control points)
Program Activities
www.zzjziz.hr
In each school we educate staff (kitchen staff, teachers,
pedagogues, psychologists, directors).
In each school we educate children about proper nutrition
(5th and 6th graders) and give them the flyers about
healthy eating.
Teachers in parent - teacher meetings talk about healthy
eating activities in school.
Improving school menus (work in progress)
Menu adaptation according to kitchen possibilities.
Presentation of School Menus (September 2013.)
www.zzjziz.hr
Institute of Public Health proposed optimal menus.
Chefs of all schools cooked meals together.
Children tasted and evaluated what they ate.
