As concerns about diet and health continue to increase, it is important to know how the great taste of lean beef can successfully fit into every lifestyle. The Idaho Beef Council is pleased to offer a wide variety of beef education programs to clubs, organizations, and classrooms. Trained Consumer Education Specialists are available to present informative programs such as:

• Eating Smart -- Even when you’re pressed for time
• Beef Fits -- How to incorporate lean beef into low-fat, well balanced diets
• Great Grilling -- Recipes and techniques for great outdoor barbecues
• Sterling Advice -- Lifestyle, diet and exercise for the silver years
• Plating It Safe -- A market-to-mealtime checklist to help keep food safe
• Quick and Easy Beef -- Teaching tomorrow’s consumers about easy, versatile beef
• Other beef nutrition and cookery programs tailored to the requests of individual groups and organizations

Each program can be designed to fit individual program needs, from 20 minutes to one hour. A minimum of 20 people is requested to schedule a program. All attendees will receive recipes and nutritional information appropriate to the program presented.

There is no charge to groups or organizations for these programs, nor is there any product sold. The Idaho Beef Council offers this service and information to Idaho consumers courtesy of all Idaho beef producers and the beef check-off program. For more information, or to schedule a beef presentation, please contact the Idaho Beef Council.
