Registered dietitian Juliette Kellow wrote an important article for us about the impact good nutrition has on pupils – read that here. However, the biggest hurdle for all schools when it comes to menu development is time. It goes far beyond simply reworking the dishes on the menu, it also involves comparing costs of ingredients, checking the allergen credentials of products, understanding the nutritional value of each recipe and so on.
Litmus Edge – our specialist in-house food procurement Purchase to Pay (P2P) and Catering Management System – does exactly that.
