First Lady Michelle Obama Announces New Effort to Make Healthier, MyPlate Recipes Easy to Find and Share
America’s
Largest Media Companies Are Compiling and Promoting Thousands of
Recipes that Align with USDA’s Guidance for Healthier Eating
WASHINGTON,
February 26, 2013 –Today, five of America’s largest media companies, as
well as Pinterest, announced a new collaboration in support of Let’s Move! to make it easier for their millions of online visitors to put nutritious meals on the table every day. Condé Nast, Hearst Magazines, Meredith, Food Network and Time, Inc. in collaboration with the Partnership for a Healthier America and USDA’s MyPlate have identified thousands of nutritious recipes that meet the guidance that supports USDA’s MyPlate,
and are labeling, compiling and promoting these recipes on their most
popular cooking websites, which collectively garnered 150 million views
in January alone. More than 3,000 recipes have been identified across 18
websites, and today nearly 1,000 of these recipes have been collected
on a new Pinterest page associated
with the effort, providing a one-stop-shop where parents, beginner home
cooks and even the most experienced chefs can find and share healthier
recipes.
“As
a mom, I know how challenging it can be to think of new meal ideas that
your kids will like and that will be good for them,” said First Lady
Michelle Obama. “This partnership takes the guess work out of finding
healthier recipes and gives parents the information and the tools they
need to make healthy choices for their families every day.”
Below is a list of publications participating in this collaborative effort:
