- A “HPNAP meal” consists of 1 serving from at least 3 of the 5 Food Groups and 1 serving must always be a fruit or vegetable; agencies should strive to provide 2 servings of fruits and/or vegetables per meal.
- The 5 Food Groups are:
- Grains/Breads/Pasta/Cereal
- Fruits
- Vegetables
- Meat/Poultry/Fish/Beans/Eggs/Nuts
- Dairy/Milk/Cheese/Yogurt
- Food Pantries
- For full funding, Food Pantries must provide 3 meals per person for 3 days in their pantry bag. A copy of the 3 day packing guide is here. If not able to meet these standards, the agency will be funded at a lower level.
