SWAP ScoreChoose Often
Supporting Wellness at Pantries (SWAP) is a stoplight nutrition ranking system designed to help promote healthy food choices. SWAP ranks food as either green (choose often, supports health), yellow (choose sometimes, can contribute to good health), or red (choose rarely, limited health benefits). These rankings are based on the amount of saturated fat, sodium, and sugar in one serving of the recipe. These nutrients were chosen because they are most associated with chronic disease risk.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans, canned, drained
- 3/4 cup milk, non-fat
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce to a simmer.
