Milk






When you think of the word dairy, usually milk comes to mind. Milk can be the most common form of dairy, but sometimes can be the most problem causing for those that are more sensitive to a lot of lactose. Other than cups of milk, there are several ways to get milk into your diet. Whether you drink regular milk or lactose free milk, always choose a low- fat or fat free milk, like skim or 1%.

1. Eating cereal is a great way to get the calcium from the milk as well as your added vitamins and minerals from the cereal you chose.

2. Dip cookies in your milk.

3. Eat macaroni and cheese. Not only will milk be in the meal, but cheese as well!


4. Cook with milk. Add it to your recipes where you can!


There are tons of other ways to get milk in your diet! Get creative!

Check back later this week for other dairy foods and ways to use them!
