salt-slashing Sunday
Check out the new blog here I’ve been talking a lot about sodium lately – see here and here It’s probably because some of the clients I’ve been working with recently are on a low sodium diet, so I’ve been busy researching the sodium content in food (there are a lot of hidden sources!) and […]

the easiest salsa to make
May 2, 2012
Check out the new blog here Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of research and recipe testing to create some low-sodium recipes that actually taste good.

cheesy chicken, broccoli, and rice casserole
April 12, 2012
The weather has been so nice outside. I’d even go as far as to say it has been a little chilly at times {haha I’m a cold weather wimp}. This “chilly” weather has me craving casseroles again, but I promise I’ll try not to post any more since it is Spring and all. So here’s […]
i heart roasted veggies
April 6, 2012
It’s safe to say I am obsessed with roasted vegetables. I talk a lot about them with my clients {and anyone else who wants to listen}. It’s one of the easiest ways to get people to actually eat veggies. When they are roasted, they just taste so amazing; plus you can roast so many different […]
eat your veggies at breakfast

The third was to eat breakfast, and the fifth was to get enough sleep. {Read about the other two here and here} Well, this recipe helps you […]
I love quinoa
March 30, 2012
Quinoa {pronounce keen-wah} is one of my favorite grains! It is a whole grain, and you don’t have to go out searching for the whole wheat version – it’s already “whole wheat.” I like to buy it from the bulk bins at Whole Foods; it can get a little pricey when you buy it from […]
cheesy bean casserole

Check out the new blog here The end of March is in sight, so I feel like my window to post warm casserole recipes is closing. Therefore, I’m going to try to squeeze in a few more before it gets too hot to even think about turning on the oven. And since it’s a Friday […]

I’m not sure why I have waited this long to post this recipe. It is probably one of my top 3 favorite meals to make {I can’t think of the other two, so maybe this is just my “top recipe I like to make”}. Oh how I love this meal. I am so excited to […]
Crock Pot Red Beans and Rice
March 13, 2012
I love using my Crock-pot (see here, here, and here). It makes life so much easier. I usually put all the ingredients in the pot at night {when my kitchen is still messy & there’s food everywhere – I am usually not up for dirtying my kitchen in the morning}, stick it in the refrigerator, and […]
Gluten-Free, Egg-Free Chicken Fingers
March 8, 2012
Chicken fingers are probably one of the most standard items on any menu. Everyone loves chicken fingers. You’re crazy not to love ‘em; they’re delicious! Unfortunately, they aren’t the healthiest item on the menu or even close to healthy. Most 3-5 piece chicken fingers have 400-600 calories and over 30g fat! And that’s without the […]
