Both the amount and types of food we consume contribute to whether our way of eating is healthy. Check out this great handout from our colleagues at NC EFNEP with tips for how to smart-size your portions.

Use your hand as a guide to estimate a smart size portion. Because hand sizes vary, compare your fist size to an actual measuring cup.
