Raspberry Energy Smoothie

I often think of only making smoothies for the morning but forget that they are also a fantastic snack option, especially during the second part of the day, when my eyelids tend to get a little heavy and I start craving something sweet or salty, or both. I also love making smoothies with my kids as it’s a great way…

Power Green Smoothie BreakfastSnacks

Power Green Smoothie

I’m a huge breakfast person. I always wake up starving and usually try to eat something within 30 minutes of rising to get my metabolism going early. But I’ve never been one to have a “go to” breakfast. Somedays I feel like eggs and toast or a big bowl of oatmeal and other days, I’m hungry, but I don’t necessary…

Hummus & Veggies

One of the biggest things that I hear from people is that they have issues with snacking. If they start out wanting a couple chips, that can often lead to half the bag. One cookie can lead to 10, etc. I love snacking and am a huge proponent of it—and most often, I find that people are snacking so much,…

Creamy Rainbow Chickpea Salad LunchSnacks

Creamy Rainbow Chickpea Salad

I’m not a huge traditional salad person. Lettuce is OK, but I could take it or leave it and while I like other vegetables and leafy greens, I sometimes just feel like I’m crunching on nothing. I do love a salad though, if it’s a big bowl of stuff, with lots of colors and textures and flavors and this one…

Bone Broth

When I was doing my dietetic internship in a hospital, I was in the elevator and a woman stepped inside. She asked me what department I worked in and I said “nutrition” to which she said, “I wish you guys would tell patients to eat homemade chicken broth and oranges instead of hospital food. Then they would get better.” And…

Apple Spice Muffins

As you may guess, there’s a lot of activity in our house with four young kids and both my husband and I working full time. Between school, after school, going the firehouse, lacrosse practice, plus my own private practice, it feels like someone is always running somewhere. Making sure everyone has a healthy snack while going from point A to…

Blueberry Lemon Bread

This stuff is great and has quickly become a regular item on rotation in this house. My kids especially love it as a sandwich with cream cheese--definitely a school lunch staple.  And because of the Greek yogurt-it's pretty dense and very filling.  Enjoy! 1.5 cups blueberries (I used frozen and just coated them in a little flour before mixing them…

Magic Doughnuts – my go-to healthy snack (and sometimes breakfast)

I give snack advice all day long--what's quick, easy, can be eaten on the go, keeps you full, gives you energy, etc...the list goes on and on.  People usually come to me saying that they want to avoid that afternoon crash and is there a snack that makes them not want to reach for cookies, chips, candy, or anything else…

Amazing, Delicious Apple Bread! (or what to do with old apples) BreakfastDessertsSnacks

Amazing, Delicious Apple Bread! (or what to do with old apples)

 It's not apple season.  I know that.  But, I have a weird obsession with Honeycrip apples. And Macoun. Soooometimes Fuji, but never Gala or Cortland. And I could write a whole entire blog post on why I don’t actually think Granny Smiths should even be in the apple family. But that’s neither here nor there. The point is, that when I…
