For the last 30 years, LACA’s National School Meals Week (NSMW) has been raising awareness about the importance of nutritious school meals. Starting on the 8th of November, each day has a different theme, helping school caterers deliver a variety of flavours and styles throughout the week. We have listed the themes below with a selection of recipe inspiration, but keep your eyes peeled throughout the week where each day will be heroed on our blog.
