I knew the number was high, but this is pretty sad. I'm sure part of the issue is that healthier food options don't have budgets for celebrity endorsements.

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I don't like this trend at all. It reminds me of when celebrities endorsed cigarettes in advertisements. I'm glad Michelle Obama has celebrities endorsing fruits and veggies for her campaign but...

etsummer I think it's harder too that junk foods are more branded. Easier to advertise Coca Cola than just 'zucchini' or 'peaches' in general.
An unexpectedly scrumptious snack
Spring is here! Simple roasted asparagus is a special treat. Roast a bunch and keep in the fridge for a quick snack or chop into salads, rice or pasta dishes, or soup. I love them right out of the ...

reneeeats How do you prevent asparagus from wilting in he fridge? Any storage tips?

DietIDdietitian Yes! Wrap the asparagus in a damp tea towel or several damp paper towels and place it inside a plastic zipper bag in the refrigerator. If you're trying to avoid plastic, use large food storage...

Deaconess Will l all ways keep my asparagus in the refrigerator in a container with water they tend to keep for a week, but I use them within that time cause anything in the refrigerator will change over time
No time to cook dinner tonight! Here's what I made in 5 minutes flat.
A power bowl! I quickly sliced and sauteed half a green pepper, half a red pepper, and a half a red onion while filling the bowl with leftover quinoa, cherry tomatoes, leafy greens, and a blob of h...
Sunday night leftover-makeover

A common challenge: Eating plant based on vacation... I've turned that into a fun opportunity rather than a challenge -
I look forward to finding and trying plant based friendly eateries everywhere we travel. Our family favorite in Chicago: Kale My Name! Our boys ask for it anytime we're headed to or through Chicago...

A toaster waffle makeover!
Ditch the butter and syrup and try this version, which is far lower in sugar and saturated fat but higher in fiber and healthy fat. And you'll be satisfied with only one waffle! Just toast up a who...

salleya This is very doable! Love the alternative also! You are making breakfast a bit easier for me and that is just what i need. THANK YOU

johnathanlhuntgmailcom I am a huge peanut butter fan. This will be great for my son because he loves waffles as well. My wife and I will eat this with toast instead. I'm guessing whole grain is the way to go there too?

Bowl dinners are the best
Quinoa, lentils, avocado, roasted beats, roasted chickpeas, with tomato-cucumber salsa. This delicious dinner came together in about 25 minutes, and it’s balanced and full of veggies!
-
annefood Agreed- I keep whole grains and beans in the pantry and when I don’t know what to do for dinner I just throw them in a bowl with a veggie or lettuce and some dressing.
-
msantiago I never thought of raising beets! I love beets any which way . Think I’ll try that! 🤔

DietID_TeamDietitians Yes! Super easy to roast. Just oil, salt, pepper and straight into the oven.
