Last week EatingWell traveled to the White House in Washington, D.C., to celebrate the MyPlate Recipes Partnership, a new effort to make healthy recipes that meet USDA’s MyPlate guidelines easy to find and share online and on a new MyPlate Recipes Pinterest page. The effort is a partnership with First Lady Michelle Obama, her Let’s Move! initiative, the Partnership for a Healthier America, the USDA and 17 top American publishers. In a sit-down meeting in the White House’s China Room last week (pictured left), the First Lady shared her family’s dinnertime challenges.
