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 […]

Check out the new blog here  This might be one of the most colorful meals I’ve made in a while. It makes me feel so good about eating it, and even better is that it was so delicious! Tuna is a good source of omega-3 fats, high in protein, and low in fat. Vegetables are […]

Back in January, I talked about 5 different health goals that you should strive toward doing for this year. The first one was eating more vegetables and fruit. 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

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 […]

I love fall for so many reasons, and I love making soup this time of year! It’s easy to make, perfect for warming you up, and makes your house smell so good! Soup is also filling and can be healthy. I apologize because I will probably be posting a lot more soup recipes throughout the fall and […]

Chicken is a great source of animal protein. It can be quick cooking, versatile, and tasty. Only problem is that I really don’t like dealing with raw chicken. I mean, who does? This is why I buy a large pack of chicken when it’s on sale and freeze it for later. That way I don’t […]
