Happy Monday, everyone! I want to share some healthy meals as a reminder to always stay meal-prepared, so you can nourish yourself properly no matter what gets in the way! Do any of you ever find yourself forgetting that you have ingredients or already prepped food in the fridge? That happens to me all the […]
In a mason jar! Lately, I’ve been using mason jars for everything — my morning coffee, growing herbs, diced fruits, yogurt parfaits, and now my cool salad lunches! This was especially convenient for the day I had during a rotation where I was on the road travelling from to site to site. I actually ate […]
Happy Spring, everyone! I’m so sorry that I missed a post, but last week was extremely hectic with taking a field trip with all the other interns to visit the State Capitol in Sacramento, starting a new rotation and volunteering for National Nutrition Month. The workload is piling up and I’m starting to feel the […]
Happy Monday, everyone! Here’s another great addition to my weekly meal preps. Quinoa is packed with sufficient carbs, substantial protein and even fiber. Can’t go wrong with adding herbed quinoa to your meals. It’s great when you get a little bored of the old brown rice or sweet potato routine to get your carbs in. […]
Happy Monday, everyone! This salmon quinoa pasta recipe was adapted from Spark People. I was looking for a pasta salad type of dish with the addition of salmon instead of tuna as I typically see it. Someone brought in a salmon quinoa pasta to work last year and I thought it was such a great […]
Happy day-after-Valentine’s Day, everyone! I wanted to include a yummy snack as giveaway goodies for a presentation I was giving last week. I didn’t want to make something too unhealthy, so I made these ‘healthier‘ Rice Krispies / crispy rice treats with some substitutions. I think Rice Krispies treats are usually a hit, but I […]
Happy Monday, everyone! It might be too soon to say, but I have a strong feeling this first rotation is the most hectic out of all of them! During the first week of rotation one, I was assigned about 12 competencies that consist of 20+ assignments with most taking a few hours to complete. They’ve been […]
Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ Happy MLK, everyone! Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the most memorable heroic icons to me because of his humanitarianism and ability to influence positive thoughts in people. He didn’t wait for somebody else to make history; he took it upon himself […]
Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle. – Napolean Hill Happy Monday, everyone! Last week I officially moved in from Los Angeles after New Years Eve. We just finished the first week of orientation for the dietetic internship. My intern class has 6 full time interns; three who are from Fresno, one […]
Getting accurate numbers on the calories and macros of food can be tricky. We often rely on Google for information that we assume is reliable. Absolutely. Remember though, Google is amazing and finds you everything to your heart’s content, but the information we end up with is not by Google. Things we stumble upon from the […]
