BBC cameras will soon be rolling at one of Brownsville ISD's campuses to highlight the district's efforts in changing the way lunch meals are prepared.

The upcoming three-part BBC documentary will focus on the lunch program’s focus on cooking from scratch.

“The Chef Ann Foundation recommended us since they've seen our pathway through this journey of scratch cooking,” Brownsville ISD food and nutrition services Supervisor Nora Navarro said.

The Chef Ann Cooper Foundation is a nonprofit organization that works with schools across the country to incorporate scratch cooking in schools.

Brownsville ISD first joined the initiative three years ago.

Navarro said creating or cooking foods such as raw proteins, whole fruits and vegetables are included in the menu.
