March is National Nutrition Month. The 2011 theme is Eat Right With Color. Each week we will be sending a message that will highlight the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables of a specific color and offer a healthy recipe. In honor of National Nutrition Month, our WIC staff challenges everyone to try and make just one positive dietary change this month.
