Alaska recipe book

Alaska Child Nutrition Programs has come out with an Alaska specific recipe book.

‘Make It Local: Recipes for Alaska’s Children’ is available online and prints will be distributed as requested.

The book “came about from the trend of schools, child care centers and residential child care institutions preparing their menu items from scratch and using locally grown products in those recipes.”

To request a copy contact Jan Mays at jan.mays@alaska.gov or by phone at 465-8712. Check out the online version at https://education.alaska.gov/tls/cnp/cookbook/Make_It_Local.pdf.
