The recipe book provided to us by NNC8 will help our students enhance their skills and knowledge especially in preparing a menu which ingredients are locally available, said by ACLC School Director Cary Jaucian.

The recipe also provides easy to cook procedure. One can identify to cook from appetizer, soup, vegetables, vegetable in mixed seafoods, vegetables and meat and many others.

BNSs will receive the copy of the recipe book, they will try to prepare the menu for their family and share the procedure to other family during their home visits, mentioned by CNPC Ralph Maribojoc of Calbayog City.

This year the country is celebrating the 47th Nutrition Month Celebration and one of the priority targets of the campaign are the families.
