Savor The Flavors Of The Summer Season With Tips And Recipes From Aramark And The American Heart Association

  

Culinary Experts and Dietitians Offer Simple Tips to Make This Summer Healthy and Delicious

PHILADELPHIA, June 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- With the summer season in
 full swing, Aramark (NYSE: ARMK), the largest U.S.-based food service
s provider, and the American Heart Association (AHA), the nation's largest voluntary
 organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke,
 are working together to improve the health of Americans, and are sharing tips
 to help everyone have a healthy summer.

In support of their Healthy for Life® 20 By 20 initiative Aramark tapped into its
 network of more than 750 registered dietitians and 1,600 chefs and the AHA
 leveraged its national network of experts, to compile the following summer
 menu tips and health ideas to make the most of the season.
MENU TIPS
LIGHTEN UP YOUR SUMMERTIME LUNCHCool crisp salads, made from fresh in-season ingredients, make for the
 perfect lunch on a hot summer day. Lighten up by dressing salads with
 light vinaigrettes or lower calorie dressings, instead of calorie laden
creamy options, like Caesar or Ranch, and think outside the salad
 box, by incorporating fresh summer fruits, or unexpected combinations,
 like walnuts or raisins.
SPICE UP YOUR BARBEQUESpices and summer herbs are a great way to add flavor to grilled meats,
 fish, vegetables and fruits. Try any of these for flavorful options:

• Ginger: Add to iced tea or summer smoothies (but remember,
•  a little goes a long way!).
• Ground Cinnamon: Sprinkle on everything from yogurt and 
• cereal, or even fresh fruit salad.
• Basil: Add unique flavor to fruit salads with basil. Delicious
•  with sweet ripe peaches, strawberries, watermelon or mango, 
• and thinly sliced basil and a little crumbled feta cheese to your 
• favorite summer fruits.
• Cilantro: Mince fresh cilantro and add to your favorite salsa 
• for a burst of fresh flavor.

REFRESH AND REJUVENATE WITH FRESH SUMMER PRODUCEIt's important to stay hydrated when enjoying the outdoors during the
summer months. Many summer fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes,
 melons, zucchini and cucumbers, are natural refreshers, since they
 contain more than 90% water.

• Tomatoes: Tomatoes (90% water) are most flavorful and
•  abundant in the summer. Take advantage of this summer 
• staple, by cutting into wedges and marinating with light 
• dressing, or slicing and placing atop a sandwich.
• Melons: Watermelons and cantaloupes (90-95% water) 
• are perfect in-season thirst quenchers. Serve chilled 
• watermelon squares or cantaloupe on Popsicle sticks; 
• top with a little yogurt for an added treat.
• Zucchini: Zucchini and squash (95% water) are perfect 
• for grilling. Cut squash into thick slices, brush lightly with 
• olive oil and/or preferred spices, and grill for a few minutes.
• Cucumbers: Cucumbers (95% water) are a great 
• addition to many summer meals. Try a cool, refreshing 
• cucumber salad:
  • Thinly slice a cucumber and top with rice wine
  •  vinegar and sesame seeds.
  • Combine with tomatoes, chopped bell peppers, 
  • onions & celery.
  • Marinate in a light vinaigrette, chill and enjoy.

A LEANER TAKE ON BARBEQUE CLASSICSBurgers and hot dogs reign supreme during the summer months.
 For a healthier alternative and twist on the traditional favorites,
 swap out beef burgers for turkey or black bean burgers, 
and traditional hot dogs for a turkey sausage or veggie dogs.
Top both with diced tomatoes, cucumbers or onions, for
 some added texture and crunch.

CHILL OUT WITH DESSERT Sweet frozen treats offer great escape from the summer heat.
 Keep a healthy balance, by choosing options like sugar free
 water ice or popsicles, or stay cool with frozen yogurt or a
 fruit parfait topped with fruit and granola. Fresh fruit smoothies
are full of flavor and can also satisfy hunger, quench thirst and
cool you down. If indulging in ice-cream, choose a reasonable
 portion and top with fresh berries.

SUMMER HEALTH & SAFETY TIPS
FOOD SAFETY TIPS FOR OUTDOOR EATINGWarm weather occasions with friends and family present
opportunities for foodborne bacteria to thrive. The following
tips can help protect you and your guests from foodborne
illness during the warm-weather months:

• Transporting the food: Keeping cold food cold is key, so 
• pack food with ice or frozen packs, in a closed cooler, 
• when traveling. Cold food should be stored at 41°F (5°C) 
• or below. Protect food from cross-contamination, by
•  keeping raw meat, poultry, and seafood securely wrapped.
• Preparing the food: For a safe outdoor grilling experience, 
• cooking food thoroughly is a must. A food thermometer i
• s essential, to make sure food is cooked safely. When
•  grilling, keep grilled foods hot by moving to the side of 
•  the grill rack until it is ready to be served. Never use the
•  same platter or utensils that previously held raw meat, 
• poultry, or seafood, and always have a clean platter and
•  utensils ready at grill-side, to serve your food. 
• Serving the food: Cold perishable food should be kept
•  in the cooler at 41°F (5°C) or below, until serving time.
•  Cold food should not sit out for longer than two hours (
• or only one hour if the outdoor temperature is above
•  90°F (32°C)). Make sure to wrap hot foods well in
•  an insulated container until serving. Hot food should 
• be kept hot at 140°F (60°C) or above. Hot foods 
• should not sit out for more than two hours.
