Food for thought this holiday season
Thursday, December 9, 2010
The holiday season is in full swing, and with it thoughts of delicious mealtimes and festive feasts - but not every child around the world has a full tummy at this time of the year. Every five seconds a child dies from hunger-related causes, and one in four kids in the U.S. are food insecure.
Google and YouTube is working with Sesame Street and
Chef Art Smith
to
raise awareness
about how families can eat healthy food on a budget. Elmo also sat down with Art to answer questions picked by the community using
Google Moderator
on their
YouTube channel
. Elmo and Art tackled tough topics like how to get kids to eat more veggies and offered tips for cooking good meals in a hurry.
And to top if off, Art Smith shared a few of his favorite, healthy
recipes
:
Turkey Shepards Pie
3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
2 scallions chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
3 medium carrots, large dice
2 medium celery stalks, medium diced
1 teaspoon of dried thyme
5 Tablespoons of all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups of chicken broth
2 pounds of cooked turkey meat, cut into pieces
