Non-School SponsorsSFSP Meal PatternSpring 2017 SFSP Training forOffer vs. Serve (OVS)

OVS - What is it?An optional meal service that allows children to decline some food items they do not want or will not eat. All food must still be prepared and offered, butThis helps to eliminate waste for many sponsorsMenu planning may be different than the basic meal pattern requirementsTraining for food service staff is vital for ensuring compliance with OVS requirements

SFSP BreakfastSFSP Breakfast Meal Pattern Requirement 1 serving grain/bread½ cup fruit or 4 fl oz 100% fruit juice1 cup milk SFSP Breakfast OVS Requirement To use OVS at breakfast a 4th item from the fruit/vegetable, bread/grain, or meat/meat alternate components must be added to the menu

SFSP BreakfastCombination items may count as two offered items as long as the item is comprised of 2 different food items Example: pancake/sausage on a stick, sausage biscuit2oz equivalent items may not count as 2 offered itemsIf a CN label says that it counts as 2 oz eq of grain, the food item may only count as 1 offered item

BreakfastExample: 1 piece of toast (meets 1 serving bread requirements)1 bowl of cereal (additional item to meet 4 item requirement)½ cup peaches (meets ½ cup fruit serving) 1 cup chocolate milk (meets 1 cup milk serving) The child must take at least 3 of the 4 offered items, but can take all 4 if desired

BreakfastExample 1 piece of toast½ cup applesauce ½ cup grape j uice 1 cup milk This menu is acceptable because it offers 4 items from the required meal pattern components.

BreakfastExample: Breakfast Burrito (1 grain and 1 meat)1 apple1 cup milk This menu is acceptable because the breakfast burrito counts as 2 items and contains one serving of grain and one serving of meat/meat alternate

BreakfastExample 1 piece of toast1 cheese stick½ cup orange juice1 cup milk This menu is acceptable because it offers 4 items. The 1 serving grain requirement is met with the toast and the cheese stick is counted as a 4 th item.

BreakfastExample 1 biscuit½ cup carrots½ cup fruit punch (100% juice) 1 cup of milk This menu is acceptable because it offers 4 items and covers the meal pattern requirements.

BreakfastExample (Not acceptable to use for OVS)2 pieces of toast½ cup pineapple1 cup milkThis menu is not acceptable for use in OVS because the pieces of toast are the same type of food, the four offered items must be different foods.

BreakfastExample (Not Acceptable for OVS use)1 Pillsbury Frudel (2oz grain equivalent)½ cup orange juice 1 cup milk This menu is not acceptable for SFSP OVS because each menu item is counted separately, regardless of grain/bread equivalent contribution. This menu only offers 3 items.

BreakfastExample (not acceptable)1 boiled egg½ cup grapes½ cup orange juice1 cup of milkThis menu is not acceptable for use in SFSP because it contains no grain item.

BreakfastIt is important that those counting meals understand OVS requirements: Students must take 3 of the 4 items offeredItems are counted individually and there are no grain items that count as 2 items taken, but combination foods can be counted as 2

LunchLet’s switch to SFSP Lunch Requirements! The SFSP regular meal pattern:1- serving bread/grain2 oz meat/meat alternate2 servings of fruit/vegetable totaling ¾ cup 1- 8oz serving of milk You must offer 5 items from 4 components:
