Simply Fresh



"Simply Fresh" is a series of one-minute healthy cooking and nutrition education segments created by HELP's Adrienne Saldivar-Meier and sponsored by regional agriculture companies and health care providers. The programs are being broadcast in a variety of media throughout the Central Coast of California, and nationwide, both in English and Spanish. Each segment offers easy to prepare recipes and delicious FRESH produce-based menu offerings for busy families.

The "Simply Fresh" program's goal is to educate the general public that they can prepare and eat healthy meals without sacrificing taste; and that there are simple, economical and quick ways to eat fresh at home rather than turning to a steady diet of processed or fast foods.

Each one-minute segment features seasonal produce from a Monterey County agriculture company in original recipes created especially for HELP. Recipes are also video streamed online at the HELPchooseyourlife.org website and will be made available to school food service directors, parent organizations and teachers with the intent of linking the programs to increasing the availability of fresh produce in school meals and to HELP based nutrition education programs offered in classrooms.

Airtime and additional support for "Simply Fresh" has been generously provided by Salinas Valley Memorial Health Care System. Remember, "You can choose a healthier life".
