Introduction: Due to the high rates of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents and the low nutritional quality of food sold in schools, one of the strategies used to promote healthy eating is the implementation of the Healthy School Canteen. Objective: To report the experience of implementing Healthy School Canteens. Method: Nine steps are presented for the implementation process in schools. Results: 2 schools participated. Meetings were held with the group of members of the project, directors and owners of the canteens, conducting a satisfaction survey with students, interviewing the owner of the canteen, analyzing the food sold, applying a checklist of the hygienic conditions of the establishments and carrying out food and nutrition education with the students and the owner of the canteen. In addition to the steps, instruments used are described. Conclusions:The proposed activities can assist in carrying out diagnoses and strategies for changing the food trade in canteens, concluding that these were important. In addition, this study will provide support for health and education professionals, as well as for the school community, which aim to regulate school canteens in their municipalities as healthier environments.
