WHAT IS “EATING WELL WITH LONCHERAS?”
20 loncheros in Los Angeles will be taking part in an exciting pilot program to add new healthy, balanced meals to their menus. These meals maintain the flavors that have made loncheras so popular, but also include vegetables/fruits and healthy portion sizes to make the meals balanced, hence the name, “La Comida Perfecta.” All of the meals meet the My Plate gu
idelines (http://www.choosemyplate.gov/food-groups/). There are currently four loncheras serving delicious Comidas Perfectas in Los Angeles. Try them today!
