Save this for when you need an easy, healthy lunch Save this for when you need an easy, healthy lunch that crushes afternoon chocolate cravings! 

In the summer, I crave anything cold and fresh. Salads are my go-to for lunch but if I’m not intentional, they are filling enough. 

Here’s the fast, satisfying lunch I eat on repeat all July and August: 

1. Big bowl of fresh chopped veggies & herbs: 

🥒Sliced cukes (soon they’ll be from my garden!)
🍅chopped tomatoes (@sunsetgrown flavor, sugar, or lollibombs until my garden tomatoes are ready) 
🫑thinly sliced peppers 
🌿basil, mint, dill, chives from the garden (any mix of herbs will do!)

✨Toss with olive oil, flaky salt, white balsamic vinegar✨

2. Fat for satiety and satisfaction (2 essentials to keep cravings at bay 

I like avocado, feta, or fresh mozzarella with this mix. 

3. Top with any protein I have. Today it was leftover tzatziki chicken salad from @kalejunkie (made a big batch for lunches for the week) 

I also love @fishwife Spanish lemon tuna, smoked salmon, or smoked trout. Or leftover grilled chicken, steak or salmon. 

1. Fiber-rich carbs to keep cravings quiet and support digestion

Top with whole grain crackers for scooping @marysgonecrackers are my fav. Whole grain pita bread slices also works well. 

Ready in 5-6 minutes and so good every time!

Your kid eating what you cook is closer than it fe Your kid eating what you cook is closer than it feels right now.

You’ve been told to just keep serving it. To make them take one bite. To create a sticker chart for trying new foods. 
And when none of that works, it feels like something’s wrong with your kid, or with you.

The only thing that’s wrong is the strategies. 

What you need instead is the right environment, language that cultivates curiosity and comfort instead of them digging their heels in deeper, some boundaries that allows for you to be considerate without catering to their every food demand. 

That’s exactly what I help parents do and I’d love to help you and your kid, too. 

DM me ‘KIDS’ to learn more about how I can help.

This isn’t about willpower or trying harder. 

It’s about understanding what your body needs and rewiring those automatic habits.

I love cottage cheese. And I’m all for a healthy h I love cottage cheese. And I’m all for a healthy hack here and there. But as a dietitian who helps women end cravings, overeating, and sweet obsessions, I want to break up your feed and remind you that it’s more than OK to eat desserts made with real sugar, white flour, and butter sometimes. 

In fact, that might be just what your taste buds and brain need to stop craving sweets and obsessing over desserts every day. 

If having sweets in the house sends you into a spiral of panic and needing to eat it all to get it out of the house so you can stop thinking about it….

I recorded a 6-part mini podcast series (you can binge it all in < 1 hr) just for you. 

It’s for the woman who’s ready to stop obsessing about sweets and finally feel in control around food. 

Comment or DM me ‘FOOD NOISE” and I’ll send it over to you. 

PS. if you feel guilty every time you eat desserts like this…you’re going to want to pay close attention to episode 4.
