Summer produce is the best! Until it’s not and you realize there’s more than one container of fruit on the bottom shelf primed for the mold to grow. Instead of tossing it and feeling guilty about waste, start chopping! Making produce easy to eat accomplishes two goals: 1. More nutrition! 2. Saves money!

These two salads were made entirely with leftovers. Cut corn off the cob, added a half green pepper, diced tomatoes and black beans, half an onion. Dressed with spices, lime juice and olive oil.

The fruit salad was literally picking out berries and cherries that could be salvaged. Added a nectarine. Don’t let less than perfect ruin what could be your next delicious meal!

Excited to share my recent contribution to the latest issue of Expeditions, the journal of the Sports and Human Performance Nutrition practice group of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

Special thanks to Dr. Melissa Brown for thinking of me and encouraging me to take on something new. Thank you also to the entire DH team, and especially to for showing me a whole new amazing world. Immensely grateful to be supporting you and this sport!

FUELED!!

Having available energy is vital to performance and sometimes small changes can make a big difference. And while nutrition might seem overwhelming, it does not have to be complicated. Adding a balanced snack to this swimmers daily routine - at the right time - did the trick 😉

Great summer reminder!

Washing, rinsing and/or marinating poultry in saltwater, lemon juice or vinegar will not destroy bacteria! Only cooking to a proper internal temperature will kill harmful bacteria. Always use your food thermometer to check poultry is safe at 165 F! 🌡️
