Count on Calcium
by AndiatBettyCrocker  1/28/2011 12:24:00 PM

Do you get enough calcium in your diet to help your body build strong bones and teeth? Many people fall short of the recommended amount of calcium in their diets and in fact, 60% of women aren’t getting enough and roughly 60% of kids aged 6-12 years aren’t getting enough either. To find out how much calcium you need in your diet, click on: Count on Calcium.

I’m a big fan of dairy foods and that makes it easy for me to get enough calcium. For example, one serving of my favorite Blueberry Smoothies contains 30% of the recommended daily amount we need. (Just three of these smoothies would give me nearly all the calcium that I need for an entire day!)

Cheese is one of my favorite foods too and that’s another great source of calcium. Here is a new Caramelized Onion and Crispy Pancetta Pizza recipe from one of our bloggers. This pizza would be great to serve at a Super Bowl party because it is more of a snack pizza with lots of cheese, caramelized onions and pancetta (Italian unsmoked bacon) but no sauce. Jack and I made it last week for dinner and we really liked it and will definitely make it again.
