SCDAO+COVID-19+FINAL

Here are some ideas for stocking your fridge, freezer, and pantry to keep everyone at home fed and
healthy in the event you need to spend a few weeks inside your doors. While it’s tempting to load
up your favorite treats, try to focus on nutritious choices, too. A healthier you equals a healthier
immune system.

Please Note: there is NOT a shortage of food or paper products in the US. Please don’t hoard
unnecessary amounts of items…..leave some for your neighbors.

 Frozen and Canned Fruits and Vegetables – citrus fruits and berries in particular
have lots of vitamin C to boost your immune system.

 Low-Sodium canned or Dry Beans: stock up on a variety like black beans, kidney,
pinto, and chickpeas. All are high in protein and zinc to boost immunity. `

 Canned Tuna, Sardines, Salmon or Chicken – lots of protein and zinc.

 Nut and Seed Butters: Peanut, Almond or Sunflower Seed Butter

 Rice, Dried Pasta and Whole Grains – try brown rice, quinoa, farro, barley, cream
of wheat and oatmeal

 Canned or Boxed Soups and Broths, Jarred Tomato Sauce

 Onions, Garlic, Ginger and Chili Peppers – all will last a long time in a cool place
(don’t store in plastic bags – they’ll rot) and add tons of flavor to recipes as well
as antioxidants for immunity.

 Root Vegetables and other Hearty Vegetables: Potatoes, Carrots, Sweet
Potatoes, Winter Squash (Butternut, Acorn, Buttercup) and Brussel Sprouts

Almacenando una cocina saludable

Preparación para distanciamiento social durante el coronavirus.

Aquí hay algunas ideas para almacenar su refrigerador, congelador y despensa para
mantener a todos en casa alimentados y saludables en caso de que necesite pasar
algunas semanas dentro de casa. Si es una tentación querer llenar su casa con sus
comidas y meriendas favoritas pero trate de concentrarse también en opciones
nutritivas. Cuando usted come alimentos mas nutritivos eso significa un sistema
inmunológico más saludable.

Tenga en cuenta: NO hay escasez de alimentos o productos de papel en los Estados Unidos.
Por favor, no acumule cantidades innecesarias de cualquier artículo … deje algunos para sus
vecinos.

 Frutas y verduras congeladas y enlatadas: las frutas cítricas y las fresas en
particular tienen mucha vitamina C para estimular su sistema inmunológico.

 Frijoles secos o enlatados bajos en sodio: abastecerse de una variedad como
frijoles negros, frijoles blancos , pinto, garbanzos. Todos contienen proteínas y
zinc para aumentar la inmunidad.

 Tuna enlatado, sardinas, salmón o pollo: contienen muchas proteínas y zinc.

 Mantequilla de nueces y semillas: mantequilla de maní, almendras o semillas de
girasol

 Arroz, pasta seca y granos integrales: pruebe el arroz integral, la quinua, el farro,
la cebada, la farina y la avena.

 Sopas y Caldos enlatados o en caja, salsa de tomate en frasco

 Cebollas, ajo, jengibre y chiles: todos durarán mucho tiempo en un lugar fresco
(no los guarde en bolsas de plástico, se pudrirán) y le agregarán a sus recetas
muchísimo sabor y antioxidantes para la inmunidad.

 Verduras de raíz y otras verduras nutritivas: papas, zanahorias, batatas, calabaza
de invierno (Butternut, bellota, ranúnculo) y coles de Bruselas
