🥣Soup is one of my favorite ways for my clients to simplify meal prep, get in more vegetables and stay cozy during the New England Winter!

I love to make a batch of soup each weekend and freeze extra portions into to keep a supply of different soups in my freezer for anytime I need a quick meal.

The perfect soup:
Step 1️⃣ vegetable base. I often like to do a roasted sheet pan of vegetables and blend with my immersion blender
+
Step 2️⃣ protein source. For a creamer soup try adding blended cottage cheese!
+
Step 3️⃣ yummy flavor. One of my favorite accounts for great healthy recipes is

Today’s lunch is butternut squash soup made with cottage cheese for extra protein from a few weeks ago. This weekend I’ll make a batch of chili to add to my soup stash!

🥗Is this the year of fiber?!

Now with the war on protein over (🧐) we can focus on our improving our GI health by taking better care of our colons (and whole GI tract) with a healthy diet!

Fiber is one of the nutrients that most of my clients are not getting enough of. Fiber goals are 25g per day for women and 38g for men.

While there are many fruits, vegetables and whole grains that are great sources of fiber, average fiber of these foods is typically around ~5g per serving. Try to aim for 5 servings of fruits/vegetables per day plus at least 1 serving of a whole grain to hit your fiber goals daily!

Colon cancer rates are increasing in people

☃️January is busy with the holidays over and work back in full swing! Having healthy food at home is a must so you can easily whip up a balanced meal even when you don’t have fresh food in the fridge!

I like to always have these items on hand so I can whip together a quick bean or pasta salad or protein shake with the soy milk. Beans + whole grain/chickpea pasta + jarred veg + pesto or olive oil and vinegar is a perfect 15 min meal from the pantry. Plus it only gets better when you have it the next day!

Plus canned food is a great budget friendly option!

🚨New Dietary Guidelines are out and if there is one thing we learned from the last time there was a food pyramid… it is that that the pyramid model makes it very confusing about frequency and portions of food.

There are so many foods that can fit on a health plate including red meat and full fat dairy, but the base of every meals should be fruits and vegetables. Proteins should be a mix of animal and plant sources to get the most health benefits.

I’ll be doing more posts on the new dietary guidelines to help you understand them more!

These are the general recommendations and a benefit of you having a dietitian is that I help my clients understand how to apply the latest science to pic meals that are the best for them!

👩🏼‍⚕️Shout out to all members of the healthcare TEAM!

While you don’t need a referral to see me, I love to get referrals from other providers! As a dietitian I’m always referring my patient out to my network to make sure they have all the support they need to reach their health goals!

I’m excited for 2026, I think it is going to be a really exciting year for the field of nutrition & dietetics!

🌎 The Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) Bill is being reviewed at the federal level which would expand access to registered dietitians for many Americans & increase opportunities for reimbursement!
🥼 The public is becoming more interested in the role that proper nutrition plays in their health!
💊 People are getting more suspicious about wellness influencers who are peddling food fear (& supplement discount codes)!
🎟️ More states are joining the RD compact and strengthening their licensure laws to protect the public from “nutritionists” without adequate training!
👯 The next generation of RD2Be and RD’s are smart, innovative, passionate and also ready to get the pay that a MS educated healthcare provider should receive. 💸

Come July 2026 I’ll be starting my term as the President of the Massachusetts Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics and I’m excited to have such a powerful platform to continue to elevate the role of registered dietitians both in MA and beyond!

If you are a MA dietitian be sure to follow to stay up to date on all the great work they are doing!
