Production Record (PI-1488)

Guidance Memorandum 9: http://fns.dpi.wi.gov/fns_centermemos

Production Records Worksheet to assure that enough food is prepared –

meal pattern compliance◦ Production Records are intended to be completed ahead of

meal production Shopping List - will help you determine how much

food you need to purchase Reference for staff who may be filling in

Production Records Cycle menus = cycle production records Saves time because cycle production records only need

to be created once and then recycled as long as menu or # of children served does not change

Estimate the number of children you are preparing for When menus change production records need to

change

Amounts Prepared

Comments section

Keep production records on file

All agencies, except for emergency shelters, must complete daily, dated food production records for all approved meals and snacks served to children one year and over.

Each meal service must provide, at a minimum, the serving sizes required by the CACFP Meal Pattern for each child served.

Production records must be completed for the purpose of planning and preparing the total amount of food that will be made available to the anticipated number of children and adults participating in each meal service which will assure that the serving size requirements are met.

They may also help control food cost.

GM #12C: CACFP Meal Pattern Requirements

CACFP Meal Pattern Serving RequirementsFor children ages 1 through 12 years old, the CACFP meal

pattern is divided into these age groups:◦ Ages 1 through 2 years◦ Ages 3 through 5 years◦ Ages 6 through 12 years

each meal component. You may serve more of each meal component, but to meet CACFP requirements, you must serve at least the minimum

Meal Preparation: What To Do Before You Start Cooking

Recipes CACFP Meal Planning Guide NFSMI Recipes for Childcare (http://www.nfsmi.org/) Accurately predict the number of servings Know the specific contribution to the meal pattern Increase employee confidence When you have a recipe you do not have to write out

all of the components. Notate the recipe name and the number of servings on the production record. Keep the recipe on file.

Weight versus VolumeDry Ounce versus Fluid Ounce

Fluid Ounce (Measure of volume)◦ Amount of space required to hold something, measure with a

measuring cup◦ 1 cup (1/2 pint) is ALWAYS 8 fluid ounces◦ 2 cups (1 pint) is ALWAYS 16 fluid ounces

Dry Ounce (Measure of weight)◦ How heavy something is, generally determined by using a

scale◦ 16 dry ounces = 1 pound; however, not always 2 measuring

cups◦ Gram is also a dry weight, 1 oz = 28.35 grams

Weight versus VolumeDry Ounce versus Fluid Ounce Misunderstanding that 1 cup (8oz) of any ingredient

always weighs 8 oz (1/2 pound)◦ This is true of water and liquids with the same density as

water A pound of rolled oats is the same weight as a pound

of water, but will take up a different volume of space because rolled oats are less dense than water – you require more oats

Meal Production Have Fun! Meal time is one of the most exciting parts

of the day for kids so you should have fun too! Prepare in advance to help save time

◦ Cook a lot and freeze (ex. casseroles, burritos, homemade chicken nuggets, soups, etc.)

◦ Prepare the evening before Scratch / homemade cooking may contain less fat,

sodium, preservatives than store bought processed Any other ideas to share?
