This study aimed to evaluate the quality of the planned menus of Federal Education Institutions (FEI) in the city of Rio de Janeiro and Niterói. The method used was a cross-sectional study conducted in eleven FEI through the lunch menu analysis, through the Quality Index of the Food and Nutrition Security Coordination (QI FNSC), which qualifies the menu as to the presence of six food groups, presence of regional and socio-biodiversity foods, weekly food diversity and absence of restricted, prohibited foods and sweet foods or preparations. The assessment of the quality of the menus shows that 63.6% of the FEI are adequate and 36.3% need some improvements, specifically related to the increase of fresh fruits, vegetables, regional foods and sociobiodiversity. It was concluded that the use of QI FNSC tool enabled the analysis of the quality of the FEI menus and it was verified the need of their adaptation in favor of the improvement of the school feeding.
