Goya Foods, America's largest Hispanic-owned food company, in collaboration with The First Lady's LetsMove initiative and the USDA, launched the MyPlate / MiPlato cookbook, Healthy, Tasty, Affordable Latin Cooking. This book is part of the national MyPlate campaign designed to help educate Americans on healthy eating.
"The health and welfare of our consumers has always been an important issue for Goya," says Chef Carey Yorio of Goya Foods. "We created the MyPlate cookbook to provide families with healthy, delicious and affordable recipes that can easily fit into everyday living."

Healthy, Tasty Affordable Latin Cooking is bilingual and features 10 complete, balanced meal ideas packed with 30 healthy recipes from around Latin America and Spain – along with healthy Latin twists to American dishes. Each of the USDA approved meals incorporates all five basic food groups for a healthy, well-rounded diet: fruits, vegetables, grains, protein and dairy.
The cookbook also includes nutritional information for every recipe, easy-to-follow cooking tips, and estimated costs for each meal. The fully-stocked pantry page showcasing Goya's nutritious ingredients makes building a healthy meal even easier.
