Healthy Potluck Recipes for Slow Food USA's Time for Lunch National Eat-In

Featured Recipes

Three-Bean Salad

This three-bean salad has far less sugar than typical versions. We opt for a combination of canned and frozen beans (for convenience) along with fresh green beans for their great taste and texture.

EatingWell Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs are a perennial potluck favorite. Our recipe replaces some of the egg yolks with nonfat cottage cheese—keeping the filling velvety and rich while reducing some of the fat. No one will know the difference.

Country Potato Salad

This updated picnic potato salad gets subtle flavor from smoked ham. If you can find them, small, thin-skinned early potatoes are best in this salad.

Raspberry Bars

Tart raspberry filling is swirled into a low-fat cream filling in these beautiful bars. They're a festive treat for a summer picnic or party.

Italian Vegetable Hoagies

This delightfully easy, and somewhat messy, sandwich packs a punch with sweet balsamic vinegar, artichoke hearts, red onion, provolone cheese and zesty pepperoncini. We love it for dinner as well as lunch. If you're packing the hoagies to take along, keep the ingredients separate and assemble right before eating to avoid soggy bread. Serve with tomato and cucumber salad.

Help get “real” food into schools by hosting an EatingWell potluck on Labor Day, September 7, 2009 as part of Slow Food USA’s National Eat-In. The Eat-In is part of Slow Food USA’s Time for Lunch campaign. As part of the campaign, Slow Food is lobbying Congress to allocate an additional $1 per day per child for healthier lunch items, to limit the junk food sold in schools and to teach children about food through farm-to-school programs and school gardens.

Gather your friends and neighbors in support of this effort for a healthy potluck featuring some of these delicious EatingWell recipes. Find more info, including how to organize a Time for Lunch Eat-In in your community, at www.slowfoodusa.org/timeforlunch.
