I'm a registered dietitian who loves to be in the kitchen (believe it or not, some RDs don't like to cook!). I believe it's extremely important for me as a dietitian to be able to "talk food"...that is, to be well-versed in meal planning, healthy meal prep, grocery shopping, label-reading, food substitutions, etc. I like how I can give my clients real-life information that they can use in the kitchen. I recommend allrecipes.com as a place where clients can search thousands of recipes where nutrition information is usually posted :) I'm very into health (obviously) and so I'm always experimenting with healthy alternatives to family favorite recipes. Cooking/baking with whole grains is currently a passion of mine. While I am health conscious, I'm still human and like to make the good stuff...desserts! I'm an avid baker and love creating cakes, cookies, bars, muffins...my husband loves me! Overall, I love to make simple yet healthful dishes. I try to incorporate lots of fruits and veggies into my diet...I love trying new things with beans, salads, whole wheat pasta, stir fries, grilling...and much more! My mom makes a killer loaf of banana bread. I have eaten a lot of banana bread in my life, and none is as good as hers. I make a mean mashed potatoes dish and yummy oat bran muffins. Anything that tastes good and gets compliments is a triumph to me :) I can't master homemade bread or rolls.
