2013-14 Breakfast Meal Pattern
Grades K-12
As a menu planner:• Make sure every possible reimbursable meal
has 4 items from 3 components. • Make sure every possible planned
reimbursable meal includes at least 1 oz. eq. of “real” grain.
• Make sure students and food service workers are aware of what items make a meal.
Food Component• Grain (optional meat/meat alternate) • Fruit (vegetable)• Milk
Food Item• The minimum required portion size = one
food item ½ cup of fruit = 1 food item 1 oz. eq. grain = 1 food item
Food Component• Grain (plus optional meat/meat alternate) • Fruit (and/or vegetable)• Milk
Examples:• Muffin, grapes and milk• Whole wheat bagel, fresh orange and milk• Pancakes, sausage link, hash brown and milk• Cereal, cheese stick, apple juice and milk
Counting food items:• 1 oz. eq. of grain = one item • 2 oz. eq. grain = two items
Example: 2 oz. eq. muffin = two items Example:
• 2 oz. eq. muffin, grapes, and milk = 4 food items
Foods with grains and meat• Example: An egg sandwich = 1 oz. eq. grain
and 1 oz. eq. meat/meat alternate: Two items under the grains component, OR One item and the meat is an “extra”
None Grain Extra• Do not need to plan a meat/meat alternate with every meal.• If no meat/meat alternate planned, make sure to plan 4 items with each meal.•Meal Plan Examples: One 2 oz. eq. grain, ½ cup fruit, 1 milkTwo 1 oz. eq. grains, ½ cup fruit, 1 milk1 oz. eq. grain, two ½ cups of fruit, 1 milk
• Can plan meat every day as long as always offer 1 oz. eq. of “real” grain item. • 1 oz. eq. of meat/meat alternate is considered one of the four items. • Students can decline the “real” grain and just take the meat item. • Meal Plan Example: 1 oz. eq. grain, 1 oz. eq. meat (counting as grain), ½ cup fruit, 1 milk
• Option if you are already offering 4 items. • If you plan meat/meat alternate as extra, will not count as an item toward the reimbursable meal.• Consider these as a “freebies.” • Extras still count toward calories and saturated fat. •Meal Plan Example: One 2 oz. eq. grain, 1 oz. eq. meat counting as extra, ½ cup fruit, 1 milk
Daily Menu• 1 oz. eq. “Real” Grain• 3 Food Components• 4 Food Items
Clarification• Not about choices or the way students are served
their food• This is giving them the ability to decline 1 food
item• Not mandatory for any grade grouping
Goals• To reduce food waste• To give students choices
Requirements• Must offer all of the options
Difference between choices and offer versus serve• Each student must take 4 food items, but they
have choices of which 4 food items to take.
Component Menu ItemFruit Peaches or ApplesGrain Muffin (2 items) or Cereal (2 items)Milk 1% White Milk or Fat Free Chocolate
Reminder! • For SY 2013-14, students can decline any 1
food item. Including a fruit and/or vegetable.
Changes• No matter how many food items (not
choices) offered as a reimbursable meal, students can only decline 1 food item
Is this reimbursable?

Reimbursable meals are all based on what you planned and what is taken. • Must plan at least 4 items from 3
components• Determine if the items you provide will
count as creditable items or if they are “extras”
• If they are “extras” these won’t count toward your 4 items or 3 components
• Share these plans with cashiers!
